Supply and demand are key factors affecting rubber prices
Changes in global rubber production and consumption will directly lead to price fluctuations. When the climate conditions in major rubber producing areas such as Southeast Asia are good, rubber production will increase significantly. When market demand is relatively stable or growing slowly, supply exceeds demand and prices tend to fall. On the contrary, if natural disasters cause a decrease in production, while demand continues to grow. The situation of supply exceeding demand will drive prices up.
The macroeconomic situation has an important impact on rubber prices
During economic prosperity, industrial production activities are active and demand for rubber increases, which drives up prices. During economic recessions, industrial production slows down, demand decreases, and rubber prices may fall.
Policy factors should not be ignored either
The relevant trade policies and agricultural subsidy policies issued by the government will have an impact on the import, export and production of rubber, and thus affect prices. For example, in order to protect their own rubber industry, some countries may adopt policies to restrict imports, which will lead to an increase in domestic rubber prices.
In addition, the development of rubber substitutes will also affect its price. If there are rubber substitutes with superior performance and lower costs, the market demand for rubber may decrease, and prices will be affected accordingly.
