The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures rose to a one-week high on Wednesday, stretching gains into a fourth day as top grower Indonesia moved closer to laying on levies which may make its palm more expensive for importers.

* Chicago Board of Trade soybean futures climbed to a one-week high on Wednesday on technical

buying and data showing U.S. processors crushed more soybeans in March than analysts expected.

* Oil prices rallied and U.S. crude jumped nearly 6 percent to a 2015 peak on Wednesday after

government data showed crude oil inventories in the United States rose less than expected last week.

MARKET NEWS

* U.S. stocks rallied following several strong earnings reports on Wednesday, while European

shares hit a 14-year high after the European Central Bank affirmed its loose policy stance.
