On the demand side, the starting load of semi-steel tire enterprises is high, domestic shipments are not smooth, and finished product inventory maintains growth; the starting load of all-steel tire enterprises is less than 70%. Due to poor shipments, enterprises are flexibly controlling production to reduce pressure. In terms of the market, the logistics and transportation industry has more vehicles and less work, market competition pressure is high, demand for tire replacement is insufficient, and the market transaction atmosphere is cold.

market outlook

The output of raw materials at home and abroad is insufficient, and market prices are operating at high levels, which has strong support for rubber costs; today, prices in China's natural rubber market are stable and rising, and transactions in the spot market are weak; downstream tires are highly resistant to high-priced rubber raw materials, and traders are limited in their willingness to receive goods. Enquiries are relatively cold, and the natural rubber market is expected to consolidate in the short term.
