Negative factors dominated, palm oil market continued to decline

This week, the Malaysian palm oil futures market continued to decline, and palm oil production in May is expected to continue to increase. The overall demand in the domestic oil terminal catering industry was weak, and the market for alternative soybean oil was declining. Under the leadership of bearish factors, the palm oil futures market continued to decline, and the spot market also followed suit. The mainstream quotation fell to the line of 7,500 RMB/ton, a decrease of nearly 5%.

Market outlook

SunSirs agricultural product analysts believe that Malaysia's palm oil inventory data was low, coupled with an increase in palm oil substitution, the future palm oil market is expected to see an upward trend.
