Demand side: Downstream tire production is basically stable, mainly supporting the rigid demand of the butadiene rubber market. As of March 14th, the operating load of semi steel tires in domestic tire enterprises was around 83%; The construction of all steel tires by tire enterprises in Shandong region has slightly increased to around 69% of the load.
From a fundamental perspective, analysts from SunSirs believe that in the short term, the price of butadiene will consolidate narrowly, and the cost support of butadiene rubber will continue to be weak; The temporary stability of downstream construction provides some support for BR, and overall, it is expected that the BR market will remain stable with a narrow range of consolidation in the later stage.
