From a fundamental perspective, analysts from SunSirs believe that the current cost of SBR is decreasing; The production of SBR has slightly increased but still remains at a low level, and the pressure on the supply side of SBR is not significant; The current downstream tire production is basically stable. Overall, due to the impact of costs and supply and demand, it is expected that the SBR market will experience narrow fluctuations in the short term.
