VEGOILS-Market factors to watch May 25

Reuters

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

markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures fell on Friday and hit their lowest level in 3 weeks, snapping a

two-week uptrend, on rising scepticism among investors about the sustainability of the robust

export demand seen this month.

* U.S. grains and oilseeds fell more than 1 percent on Friday, with soybeans tumbling to the

lowest levels since October in a broad commodities selloff as the dollar rallied against a

basket of global currencies.

* Oil fell about 2 percent on Friday as a rallying dollar and profit-taking ahead of a long U.S.

MARKET NEWS

* Global equity markets dipped but remained near record highs on Friday after Federal Reserve

Chair Janet Yellen said she expected U.S. interest rates to rise this year, a view that lifted

bond yields and was bolstered by rising core consumer prices.
