VEGOILS-Market factors to watch January 22
The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil
markets.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Malaysian palm oil futures fell for a fourth straight day on Friday, weighed down by a
stronger ringgit and concerns over slow exports.
* U.S. soybean futures rose for the fifth straight day on Friday, hitting their highest in 5-1/2
weeks as concerns about crop development in South America fuelled buying, traders said.
* Oil prices ended down on Friday and broke a four-week winning streak after a rally that had
taken benchmarks to three-year highs, as investors sold positions on re-emerging U.S. production
concerns.
MARKET NEWS
* World equity markets climbed to a record on Friday as the U.S. dollar held near three-year
lows and a U.S. government shutdown loomed, while U.S. Treasury yields continued their ascent to
hit their highest levels since September 2014.
