RUBBER MARKET

REVIEW

the

We have recovered from lowest..price level reached during the present downward movement. The uneasiness caused by the weakness of the guilder has tem- porarily abated, and thanks to consumers support an improve ment in price is recorded.

There is an apparent paradox arising out of the glowing. trade reports from the U.S.A., and the lack of reflex action on the Rubber Trade.

There is little doubt in" our minds that trade is on the up- grade the USA, as shown by the usual indices: steel output. building activity, car loadings, bank debits, motor ear. produc- tions, etc. Yet, new of the, constant kaleidoscopic changes in the economic policy of that coun- try, to the manufacturers arid traders the future appears too un- certain to concentrate on a policy involving forward commitments. hence a hand-to-mouth buying of commodities tu general, and rub- ber in particular.
