[Dow Jones] Asian cash rubber prices mostly lower, weighed down by weaker futures, though tight supply continues to offer mild support, say traders. “The buying interest is still there but with futures up and down every day and oil prices coming off the highs, there”s a sense that the spot market lacks direction, so both buyers and sellers appear reluctant, particularly ahead of the weekend,” says trader in Singapore. Heavy rain over the last three days continues to hamper tapping work in southern Thailand”s key producing regions, says trader in Phuket.
