The Second Quarter 2010 Rubber Economist Report
(3rd June 2010)
The Second Quarter 2010 Rubber Economist Report was sent to all our subscribers in early June. The regular features cover analyses of natural and synthetic rubber consumption and production for the major countries, regions and the world along with global rubber balances, stocks and prices.
The Report investigates in detail how the rubber industry reacted to the financial crisis, answers the question of whether the industry has turned around yet, and if not when will the turn around occur and how strong will it be?
Apart from providing our latest short-term monthly natural and synthetic rubber production, consumption and price forecasts, the Report also discusses other issues including: financial crisis and economic recession - 2007 to present; rubber prices, stocks and currencies; and how high is the current rubber price in historical context?
Interested readers may find an example of the Third Quarter 2009 Report here (pdf version available on request). The publication is available on a quarterly basis at a subscription rate of £200 annually. Please contact info@therubbereconomist.com for more information.
