On the demand side: Semi-steel tire companies are making slow price increases, companies give priority to foreign trade ordering, and order delivery in the Chinese market is slightly delayed; the circulation of goods in the entire steel tire market is slow, and there is no change in corporate price policies, and the market is mostly pricing based on volume. In terms of market, shipments in the Chinese market dropped significantly compared with the previous month, and foreign trade exports also shrank, but there is still some overall support.

market outlook

Thailand's raw material prices are declining steadily, and support for rubber costs is weak; China's Yunnan and Hainan production areas have been cut one after another, the market supply is low, and raw material prices are tight; today, China's natural rubber market prices have increased within a narrow range, and Qingdao's warehouse removal speed continues to advance; The starting load of the downstream tire industry is stable at a high level. With the decline in the natural rubber market alone, tire companies are making up for stocks on dips, and it is expected that the natural rubber market will operate weakly in the short term.
