An official blog in i3investor to publish sharing by Mr. Koon Yew Yin.

The crude palm oil (CPO) price chart below shows that CPO price has risen from Rm 2,200 per ton in April 2020 to close at a historical record high of Rm 5,300, an increase of Rm 3,100 per ton within the last 18 months.

 

The reasons why CPO price shot up in the last 18 months are as follows:

During the last 18 months, Indonesia and Malaysia have been taking all the necessary steps to prevent the spread of Covid 19 virus.

Both of the governments implemented MCO and lockdown. Workers could not go to work in the plantations to fertilise the palm trees and collect the fruits. Truck drivers could not go to drive trucks to transport the fruits to the crushing plants and to deliver palm oil to the refineries. As a result, the shortage of CPO supply pushed the CPO price up higher.

For decades, all the plantation companies have been expanding their plantations. As a result, CPO price has been falling below Rm 1,500 per ton in 2009 as shown on the price chart above. 

Currently there is no more MCO and lockdown. All the people are free to go about to work and condition will become normal again as before. The current CPO record high price of Rm 5,300 per ton is not sustainable. It will fall sooner or later.

I hope investors will read this article and take appropriate action.

Palm oil companies & Steel companies both capital intensive

Palm oil Companies got to buy lands while Steel company need to invest in Very high Capital Intensive Steel Mills

Over a very long time Palm oil lands APPRECIATE IN VALUE & CAN BE SOLD FOR VERY HIGH PROFITS.

Steel mills on the other hand will turn into a Heap of Rusted Useless steel (and value is destroyed)

Palm oil companies like Tmakmur, Kulim & Kwantas were taken private with high premium prices

Steel like Perwaja, Kingsteel & Amsteel ended in bankruptcies

It's time to dump it before it crash hard.

Next year if the production increase the price may drop 10% - 20% but don't expect it drop to below RM4,000. During December2019 investment banks said the CPO sure drop back to RM2,000+ by April 2020. During December 2020 investment bank said CPO sure drop to back to RM3,000 by May/June 2021. What is the price of CPO Now ? Investment bank and KYY is just guessing.

Palm oil is the most economical cooking oil in the world, if no substitute cooking oil can be found in the near future then the price will not drop drastically.

Further factors are these

1. Indonesia and Malaysia banned further conversion of forest to oil palm cultivation

So no new oil palm but world population is growing by 80 million per year (0nly 1% growth out of 8 billion people on earth. So demand increase but supply no longer increase

2021-11-01 16:48

Both indonesia and Malaysia are mixing palm oil as B30 biodisel to fuel

So more palm oil goes into power for vehicles less for export

Canada Rapeseed oil failed badly this past summer

Since Only Northern hemisphere produce most of Rapeseed or canola oil (not Argentina, Brazil or Australia ). There won't be enough canola oil until August 2022 for next Canadian canola harvest

As such canola oil is now over Usd1000

Higher than last record of Usd600 or up by more than 50%

Without Rapeseed oil both soybean oil and palm oil will rule the world oil seed market till End 2022 with high sustained prices

2021-11-01 16:53

calvintaneng

USA refineries under clean energy mandate to turning from fossil fuel to biodisel fuel on a MASSIVE SCALE

LATER BOTH REFINERIES AND BAKERS WILL BE FIGHTING OVER SOYBEAN FOR FOOD AND FOR CLEAN FUEL

WITH SUCH STRUCTURAL DEMAND (REFINERY RECONFIGURED FOR BIODISEL USE) SOY OIL AND ITS PROXY COMPETITOR WILL SEE SUSTAINED PRICES

The worst is yet to come for currency debasement by Fed relentless money printing

USA debt has reached usd28 Trillions and Fed still print Fiat money from thin air with no gold support backup

As such people are fleeing from paper currency to gold, silver, Bitcoin and Ethereum as a safe STORE OF VALUE

And farm lands are now getting expensive all over the world

As paper currency collapse there will be a corresponding rise of hard assets by inflation

So both palm oil and palm oil plantation lands can only get more and more valuable over time

He totally ignorant and simply bluff why CPO crash in 2009 amid Lehman's collapse! What a shame.

Dunno about Uncle Con but have a brother-in-law who owns palm oil land/farm. Price can only go up from now until they can resolve the labor shortage issues. MCO over does not mean there will be many workers ready to go back to work in the industry, you need to be in it to know the real details.

This article too shallow to believe. Looks like a copy and paste from some reading.

Uncle caution CPO price correction . Is that justified?
I would like to share the year's high (H) , low (L) and the simple average (Avg) from year 2008 to 2021as below :
2008. $4179 (H) , $1403 (L) , $2791 (Avg)
2009. 2887,. 1630. 2259
2010. 3782. 2386. 3084
2011. 3930. 2786. 3358
2012. 3567. 2027. 2797
2013. 2635. 2157. 2396
2014. 2917. 1933. 2425
2015. 2360. 1802. 2081

2016. 3243. 2181. 2712
2017. 3344. 2338. 2841
2018. 2555. 1718. 2137
2019. 3025. 1834. 2430
2020. 3835. 2021 2928
----------------------------------------------------
Avg. 3251. 2017. 2634
----------------------------------------------------
2021YTD 5395. 3471. 4434

2021's H is 29% higher than the highest H (2008)
2021's H is 66% higher than the avg H 2008-2019
2021's L. Is 147% higher than the lowest L (2008)
2021's L is 72% higher than the avg L 2008-2019
2021's Avg is 68% higher than the Avg 2008-2019.

(Note : in 2008 , Lehman's collapse in Sept caused global panic and hence commodity prices )

Despite the above , all plantantion counters stock prices are 20-50% below the highs achieved in 2008 -2020 period . Mind boggling indeed.

So, why should there be worries if CPO price indeed correct for 10-20% next year ??

TheGardener

Bro Koon, please dont listen or learn from your half bake, remisier, god, guru, master, gold finger, educator and so on!!! If they are excellent, why they need your tuition fee please? My two cents, indicator about inflation is down, price for commodity should be down. 10% to 20% down for CPO is ok. Main negative news for plantation company is 33% tax after 100 million profit (Budget 2022). All bad news for CPO, any bad drop please!? No, what is it mean please!? Price for commodity is not about supply n demand, everything is about politic! Why Euro want to ban CPO please!? If you think America & China problem can overcome by tomorrow or few months time then you need to sell all stock. Beside that, America debt are so high. The best way to make this debt look small is inflation. On other hand, the best way to create inflation is breakup. What I foresee is "HYPERINFLATION" on the way!!! Last, situation can be change instantly. Investment is about control risk.

When this sifu give advise to sell all plantation stock when CPO too high on 31 Oct 2021, he did not know or rather don't spend time to understand that underlying environment at that time will support CPO price.

Fast forward to today, he is changing his tune to buy plantation stock because CPO price is at elevated 7k. And yet his choice of company is as bad as his skill of prediction, TDM.

Maybe his should change to disciple instead of sifu for him to make money in stock market
