Kottayam: Spot rubber finished steady on Tuesday. The market lacked the follow-up support from major consuming sectors though there was no visible selling pressure from growers or dealers. RSS 4 closed unchanged at Rs 122.75. Traders were a bit disappointed when the Japanese markets were marginally down on early trades and a late recovery on the trendsetter failed to strengthen the domestic prices, an observer said. Sheet rubber weakened to Rs 122.25 a kg during the morning session but regained the initial losses in tune with the global gains. The market is expected to follow the international trends in near term amidst dull volumes.
