On the demand side: The overall capacity utilization rate of the semi-steel tire industry continues to be high, and transactions in the market for some models of tires are in full swing, and enterprises are actively scheduling production; the start-up situation and inventory of enterprises in the entire steel tire industry show certain differences. The overall operation of large enterprises is good, and some small and medium-sized enterprises have fewer new orders signed, low start-up, and accumulated inventories. In terms of the market, there is a strong atmosphere of speculation in the downstream tire market, but demand in the replacement market has not performed as expected, and most companies remain wait-and-see in their price policies.

market outlook

China's raw material production areas are still in the cut-off period, and there is no supply in the market. Global rubber has entered a low-production area. Thailand has been affected by severe weather, and raw material output has continued to decline, and tight goods and prices have increased, which has a strong support for rubber costs; Today, China's natural rubber market prices have fallen and risen, and new market orders have been sold lukewarm; the overall downstream tire industry has started at a high level, but it lacks a certain positive boost. Market shipments will be difficult to increase in the short term. It is expected that the natural rubber market will operate steadily in the short term.
