[Dow Jones] Tocom RSS3 rubber futures settle lower on long liquidation but manage to stay above key psychological mark of Y200/kg. “Supplies from most regions of Indonesia are continuing as usual; therefore the upward push to prices due to the earthquake is limited,” says exporter in Singapore; adds tight supply due to dry Indonesian weather mostly factored in prices. Rubber prices briefly fell below Y200/kg but recovered, tracking crude oil which has held above $70/bbl during Asian trading hours. “Pre-weekend liquidators may try to drag down prices again during the night session,” says Japan-based trader. Benchmark Tocom March rubber contract settles Y1.6 lower at Y200.8/kg. (SAM)
