On January 9, the natural rubber raw material market in Thailand saw an increase in prices: RSS (Ribbed Smoked Sheet) was quoted at 61.30 THB/kg, up by 0.15 THB/kg; latex was quoted at 56.00 THB/kg, up by 0.25 THB/kg; and cup lump was quoted at 53.50 THB/kg, up by 0.10 THB/kg. PriceSeek analysis of natural rubber shows a bullish-bearish score of 1.5. The article indicates that on January 9, 2026, natural rubber raw material prices in Thailand rose across the board (RSS up 0.15 THB/kg, latex up 0.25 THB/kg, cup lump up 0.10 THB/kg), suggesting tight supply or increased demand in the producing region. This provides favorable support for spot prices and is expected to drive up production costs and spot quotations. Combined with natural rubber futures data (e.g., the main contract 2605 settlement price at 16,185 CNY/ton, up by +50), rising raw material costs will further strengthen bullish expectations in the futures market. In the short term, futures prices may continue their upward trend. The score of +1.5 reflects significant positive factors, but the limited magnitude of the increase restricts more substantial optimistic expectations.
