Overall social inventory remains sufficient, and replenishment remains cautious [3] Group 5: Price Expectations - It is anticipated that rubber prices will maintain a range-bound fluctuation between 15,500 and 16,500 CNY, supported by lower raw material prices but pressured by weak demand. Future attention will be on the production situation in Thailand [3]
