On the demand side: The overall production and sales of semi-steel tyre enterprises are high, foreign trade orders provide strong support, and corporate profits are relatively considerable; the production and sales of all-steel tyre enterprises are basically balanced, the market trading atmosphere is tepid, and the overall inventory is at a reasonable level. In terms of the market, downstream tire companies have high production costs. Although the demand for terminal replacement is weak, they have strong intentions to increase tire prices.

market outlook

Overseas raw material prices are operating at high and volatile levels. China's raw materials are growing well, and Yunnan manufacturers have successively carried out trial cutting; today, China's natural rubber market prices are rising steadily, and inventory trends in some regions are declining; the downstream tire industry is highly resistant to high-priced rubber, and most purchases are based on demand. Focus on demand, the natural rubber market is expected to consolidate in the short term.
