KUALA LUMPUR - The Malaysian rubber market ends higher today supported by stronger regional rubber futures markets.

A dealer said overnight gains in crude oil prices and the continuous weakening of the ringgit against the US dollar also increased their risk appetite resulting in them to stock up on rubber.

Market sentiment was also lifted by China's commitment to implement economic policies to further stabilise its economy.

Yesterday, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang said the country will push ahead with their economic programme in the fourth quarter of this year after the economy stabilises in the third quarter.

Nevertheless, further gains were capped by concerns over rising interest rates and a looming recession.
