Rubber prices today, November 5, recorded mixed movements on major exchanges in Asia. While prices in Japan edged up slightly thanks to the optimistic sentiment at the beginning of the week, the Shanghai and Singapore markets were under downward pressure due to the gloomy consumption outlook from China. Domestically, rubber prices remained stable, with no significant fluctuations.
Domestic rubber prices
On the morning of November 5, domestic rubber prices at major companies such as Phu Rieng, Ba Ria, Mang Yang and Binh Long continued to remain stable at around VND394-422/TSC and VND359-409/DRC. Specifically, at Phu Rieng Rubber Company, the price of latex remained at VND420/TSC/kg, and mixed latex at VND390/DRC/kg. Mang Yang Company purchased grade 1 latex at VND399/TSC/kg, grade 2 at VND394/TSC/kg; mixed latex fluctuated from VND359-409/DRC/kg.
At Ba Ria Rubber Company, the listed price of latex is from 400 - 410 VND/TSC/kg depending on quality, while DRC ≥ 50% mixed latex is at 18,000 VND/kg, 35 - 44% is at 13,500 VND/kg. Binh Long Company still maintains the purchase price of latex at the factory at 422 VND/TSC/kg, at the production team at 412 VND/TSC/kg, and mixed latex (DRC 60%) is priced at 14,000 VND/kg.
According to the Vietnam Customs Department, in the third quarter of 2025, the country exported 598,094 tons of rubber, worth 995.1 million USD, a sharp increase of 92.4% in volume and 81% in value compared to the second quarter. In the first 9 months, exports reached 1.29 million tons, a slight decrease of 1.9% in volume but an increase of 8.9% in value, thanks to prices remaining at high levels.
The increase compared to the previous quarter was mainly due to seasonal factors, when rubber trees entered the peak exploitation period of the year. In the first 9 months of 2025, Vietnam exported a total of 1.29 million tons of rubber, a slight decrease of 1.9% compared to the same period last year. However, thanks to prices remaining at high levels, the export value still increased by 8.9% compared to the same period last year, reaching nearly 2.3 billion USD.
World rubber prices
In the international market, rubber prices recorded mixed fluctuations. In Japan, the RSS3 rubber contract for November 2025 delivery on the Tocom exchange reached 314.3 JPY/kg, up 1.27%; while the January 2026 contract decreased slightly to 308.6 JPY/kg. Low trading volume shows the cautious sentiment of investors.
On the contrary, in Shanghai, natural rubber prices on the SHFE exchange continued to decrease. The November 2025 contract was at 14,205 CNY/ton, down 0.25%; the January 2026 contract decreased 0.77% to 14,845 CNY/ton. This development reflects weak demand from the Chinese auto industry, as new car production and tire consumption have not recovered after a long period of decline.
In Singapore, the price of TSR20 rubber futures for December 2025 fell 1.63% to 168.2 cents/kg; other futures also fell around 1.5%. At the same time, rubber prices in Thailand fell 0.7% to 66.63 baht/kg, while the Malaysian market went against the trend, with SMR 20 prices increasing 1 sen to 732.00 sen/kg.
Analysts said that the short-term outlook for world rubber prices still depends on purchasing power from China - a country that consumes more than 40% of global rubber output. As the country's auto manufacturing industry has yet to show signs of a strong recovery, the Asian rubber market is expected to continue trading in a narrow range, lacking clear momentum for price increases.
