Resistance from buyers hits spot rubber

Aravindan

Kottayam June 26 A bearish trend continued to prevail in the physical rubber market on Tuesday. The sentiments were dull and the prices surrendered further on buyer resistance amidst moderate selling from dealers and growers. The volumes were meagre. RSS 4 moved down to Rs 77 from Rs 77.75 and a kg at Kottayam but the grade finished steady at Rs 77.50 a kg at Kochi. According to market circles certain major manufactures gave quotes only up to Rs 76 a kg to put further pressure on sheet rubber.
