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

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures slipped to the lowest in almost three weeks on Wednesday,

stretching their losses into a fourth session as weakness in comparative markets overseas

dragged, although robust export demand put a floor under prices.

* U.S. soybeans fell to seven-month lows and corn to one-week lows on Wednesday, pressured by

forecasts for nearly ideal growing conditions for the crops next week.

* Oil prices rebounded on Wednesday, with U.S. crude snapping a five-day decline, after another

weekly inventory draw but gains were still limited by a huge supply overhang and concerns about a stronger dollar.

MARKET NEWS

* The dollar rose and U.S. Treasury yields fell on Wednesday after minutes from the latest

Federal Reserve meeting bolstered expectations that U.S. interest rates will remain near zero until later in 2015.
