The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil
markets.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Malaysian palm oil futures ended lower on Wednesday after three consecutive sessions of strong
gains, as a drop in commodity markets amid concerns over China’s growth weighed on prices.
* U.S. wheat futures sank on Wednesday, weighed down by signs of abundant supplies and dim
prospects for U.S. exports, traders said.
* Oil prices ended nearly 2 percent higher on Wednesday in volatile trade as rallying equities
on Wall Street pulled crude up from lows after futures sank on concerns about global oversupply.
MARKET NEWS
* Global stock indexes rose on Wednesday, helped by reports of brokerage measures in China to
invigorate the country’s battered markets, while oil bounced from earlier losses to end nearly 2
percent higher.
