Spot rubber continued to rule almost unchanged on Friday. RSS 4 was steady at ₹125 per kg, according to traders and the Rubber Board. The grade was quoted at ₹122 by dealers.

The trend was partially mixed as latex improved sharply on extremely low supplies.

May futures weakened to ¥207.3 (₹108.99) on the Tokyo Commodity Exchange.
