Market negotiations remained deadlocked, with mainstream offers for Daqing, Yangzi, and Qilu butadiene rubber currently ranging from 12,900 to 13,150 yuan per ton.

PriceSeek Analysis of Butadiene Rubber:
Bull-Bear Score: -1.5
Reasoning: The article indicates that the spot market for butadiene rubber is weak, with traders lowering their offers by 100–150 yuan per ton. Mainstream prices have dropped to 12,900–13,150 yuan per ton, while private brands are as low as 12,600–12,900 yuan per ton. This suggests an oversupply in the spot market or weak demand, leading to significant downward price pressure, which is bearish.

Coupled with the decline in futures prices, the butadiene rubber futures main contract 2605 (Shanghai Futures Exchange) closed at 13,280 yuan per ton on February 4th (up 285 yuan). However, the article notes that prices continued to fall on February 5th, indicating a short-term shift toward bearish sentiment, which may exacerbate the risk of a futures price correction.

Overall, the combination of spot price reductions and futures declines reflects pessimistic market sentiment. However, the situation has not yet reached a level of significant bearishness, warranting a score of -1.5.
