Tocom benchmark rubber futures will inch up on
Monday, helped by higher oil and metals prices. After posting a second straight
weekly gain, Tokyo Commodity Exchange rubber contract for October delivery is
expected to trade in a positive range of ¥206 & ¥214 a kg. China is
expected to bolster its cooling economy as its policymakers still have room to
increase support and world no. 1 natural rubber supplier, Sri Trang
Agro-Industry and other leading rubber producers in Asia plan to raise prices
sharply, ditching a system of pegging them near the benchmark set by the SICOM
exchange in Singapore.
The benchmark RSS4 grade rubber closed at `.121
a kg at Kottayam, while RSS3 grade closed at `.108.77 a kg at
Bangkok and Malaysian SMR20 closed at `.89.22 a kg. On
National Multi Commodity Exchange May 2015 futures closed at `.121.07
a kg, June at `.124.17 and July at `.126.15 a kg. On
