Rubber market bounces back to close firmer


A dealer said the rebound was also buoyed by a weaker ringgit against the US dollar, which made local rubber prices more attractive to international traders

A dealer said the rebound was also buoyed by a weaker ringgit against the US dollar, which made local rubber prices more attractive to international traders.
