TOKYO — Natural-rubber futures tumbled by the daily price limit for a second day to the lowest in almost 22 months on concern the global credit crisis is slowing economic growth and weakening demand for the commodity used to make tires.
Rubber for March delivery lost 7.1 percent, to $2,070 a metric ton, on the Tokyo Commodity Exchange this morning. It was the lowest since Dec. 15, 2006.
