SUMMARY
 
In August, rubber prices on major Asian exchanges continued to rise sharply due to concerns that the global supply shortage was becoming more severe. During the first 20 days of September,  global rubber prices fluctuated inconsistently across markets, but the overall trend was still upward.
 
Export volumes in August continued to be lower than the same month last year, despite an increase compared to the previous month. Of this, the amount of rubber exported to China and South Korea declined significantly. The average export price of Vietnamese rubber remained favorable, although it decreased slightly compared to the previous month.

Outlook: According to Vietdata, demand for rubber from the Chinese market is likely to remain weak in the coming months, amid ongoing "waves" of increased import tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles.
