Rubber Spot rubber prices decline Aravindan
Kottayam , Aug 29 Rubber declined on fresh selling from dealers and growers on Tuesday. Domestic prices recorded moderate losses amidst buyer resistance as TOCOM lost heavily on long liquidation inspired from the bear hammering in gold and oil counters coupled with a steep decline in Singapore rubber market. All major overseas indices finished lower on Tuesday RSS 4 closed at Rs 88 a kg against Rs 89 a kg at Kottayam and Kochi. Certain major manufacturers bought sheet rubber at quoted level but they preferred to keep a low profile expecting further slip in prices.
