On February 24th, the market for styrene butadiene rubber in East China saw a significant increase. During the Spring Festival, crude oil prices rose significantly in foreign markets, and after the holiday, the futures prices of Shanghai rubber and butadiene rubber rose sharply. Spot traders of SBR raised their offers by around 150-250 RMB/ton. Currently, the mainstream price of styrene butadiene 1502 in Fushun, Jihua, Qilu, Weitai, Yibang, and Lanhua is 13,300-13,400 RMB/ton.
The article shows that on February 24th, the spot price of SBR in East China was significantly increased by 150-250 RMB/ton, with the mainstream price ranging from 13,300 to 13,400 RMB/ton. This was driven by the sharp rise in crude oil prices during the Spring Festival period and the upward trend in butadiene rubber futures after the holiday, resulting in tight market supply and demand. Based on the futures data of butadiene rubber (related synthetic rubber products), the main contract, such as 2603, rose by 425 RMB to 13,140 RMB/ton at the closing price, with active trading volume (106,030 lots) and stable holdings, indicating that the overall strength of the rubber futures market is favorable for the price of butadiene rubber futures. The comprehensive factors constitute a significant positive trend, and it is expected that both spot and futures prices will continue to rise.
