The benchmark rubber contract on the Tokyo Commodity Exchange (TOCOM) for February delivery fell 0.7 yen to settle at 192.2 yen ($1.77) per kg.
The most-active rubber contract on the Shanghai futures exchange for January delivery fell 255 yuan to finish at 13,325 yuan ($2,170) per tonne. The front-month rubber contract on Singapore's SICOM exchange for October delivery last traded at 152.50 US cents per kg, down 2.7 cents.
