Shanghai rubber dives on weak fundamentals

Shanghai Futures Exchange

Rubber futures traded on the Shanghai Futures Exchange (SHFE) retreated and ended nearly 1 percent lower on Friday (July 12, 2013) after a strong rally in the previous session.

The most actively traded contract for January 2014 delivery ended at 17,485 yuan/metric ton, down 175 yuan or 0.99% from the previous settlement.

The market is weighed down by weak supply/demand fundamentals, said analysts, pointing to the mounting high inventories atChina’s bonded zones, accumulatively at around 16,000 tonnes.
