BANGKOK, March 31 - Asian physical rubber prices were higher on Wednesday, supported by tight supply and rising futures prices on the Tokyo Commodity Exchange, dealers said.
The benchmark Thai rubber price was offered at a record high of $3.52 per kg, breaking the previous record of $3.50 set this week.
Rubber reached levels around $3.30 per kg 58 years ago at the time of the Korean War. It went above that level in March this year and has continued to move higher as demamd is strong and supply is falling for seasonal reasons. [ID:nSGE62S04G]
