Ultra-low-price rubber has also greatly reduced the manufacturing cost of tires, and the price of tires has been declining. Some tire companies have even started a price war, and tire prices have reached the lowest point!
However, extremes meet. With the control of the epidemic and the recovery of the market, the prices of rubber and carbon black have rebounded one after another, and the price of tires cannot always remain at an ultra-low level. Relevant experts said that the price explosion of rubber and carbon black will help tires start the price increase mode in August!
The price of rubber skyrocketed.
In the early morning of August 7, rubber futures rose collectively. According to the data of Wenhua Finance, as of 9:37, the main contract of rubber futures on the 20th had a daily limit of 5.98%. The main contract of rubber futures was reported as 12630 yuan/ton, and the highest intraday price was 12700 yuan/ton, a record high.
At the same time, the futures daily said that the valuation of rubber futures is low, and the short-term price fluctuation is increased under the drive of funds. In the medium and long term, the fundamental margin will improve, the contradiction between supply and demand will improve, and the rubber price center is expected to continue to rise.
The price of carbon black rose by 30%
It is reported that on July 14, Cabot Company issued a notice of product price increase. It is announced that the prices of cabot's Cabo-O-SIL fumed silica, colloidal silica and Cabo-O-Sperse aqueous dispersion will increase by 10% from July 2005.
It is understood that white carbon black, commonly known as silicon dioxide, is widely used to produce high-performance tire products. Wind data shows that the price of carbon black has continuously increased from a low of 3,850 yuan/ton in May to 5 100 yuan/ton, with an increase of more than 30%.
According to relevant media reports, the carbon black N330 in East China even rose to 5200-5500 yuan/ton in July, up 800- 1000 yuan/ton from last month.
In August, the price of tires began to increase.
Since June, according to the price increase notice issued by enterprises and market research, wheel statistics show that the products of nine tire enterprises have started to increase in price.
Chopin said in an article before that as long as the prices of rubber and carbon black remain at a low level, the price increase of tires is likely to be a pity. However, if the prices of rubber and carbon black rise, it will be difficult to keep the price of tires at a low level.
At the same time, August-September was originally the peak period of price increase of tire enterprises, and the price of tires would increase slightly in previous years. Therefore, August is likely to be a turning point in tire prices.
