Thebaseballer such as a cub following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and
other vegetable oil markets.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Malaysian palm oil futures rose to their highest in nearly two weeks on the
first trading day of 2019, after world's largest edible oil importer India
announced import tax cuts, amid expectations of a fall in production.
* U.S. soybean futures advanced to a near two-week high on Wednesday on
declining yield prospects in Brazil and optimism about U.S. trade relations with
top global soy buyer China, traders said.
* Oil prices rose about 2 percent in choppy trading on Wednesday, supported by a
slight recovery on Wall Street, even as concerns remained about weakening global
economic growth which could hurt demand for oil.
MARKET NEWS
* Weak Chinese and European economic data weighed on stocks around the world and
boosted safe-haven Treasuries and the Japanese yen on Wednesday, though Wall
Street shares edged higher as investors took advantage of cheaper shares to ring
in the new year.
