Spot rubber continues to rise

Spot rubber continues to rise

Kottayam, March 20

Spot rubber prices showed a better trend on Saturday. The market continued its upward journey on covering purchases as domestic rubber futures finished firm on NMCE. Supply concerns haunted the buyers and the prices inched up though major consuming industries were not visibly active during the weekend session. Sheet rubber improved to Rs 153 from Rs 152.50 a kg amidst scattered transactions. The volumes were not impressive.
