Soybean prices jumped more than 5% higher after USDA lowered 2023 acreage estimates to 83.5 million acres (down 5% from 2022). A flash sale to China and lower-than-expected stocks added to today’s bullish sentiment. July futures climbed 74.75 cents to $15.5775, with August futures up 72.75 cents to $14.4050
Malaysian palm oil futures jumped more than 4.5% to around MYR 3,950 per tonne, rising for the third straight session while approaching their highest level in three months, due to a rally in rival soyoil on concerns over smaller US planting and inventories. The US Department of Agriculture Friday reported much lower-than-expected 2023 soy plantings and June 1st stocks. Meantime, Russia’s envoy to the United Nations in Geneva said there were no grounds to maintain the “status quo” of the Black Sea grain deal that is set to expire on July 18th, according to the Russian news outlet Izvestia said. On the supply side, exports of Malaysian palm oil products for June fell 6.9%, cargo surveyor Intertek Testing Services reported. Another cargo surveyor, AmSpec Agri Malaysia, said exports rose 0.6%. Meantime, Indonesia plans to raise its mandatory palm oil-based biodiesel blending to 40% in the next few years after increasing it from 30% to 35% in February. .
Russia ended the Ukraine grain-export deal nearly a year into the agreement, heightening uncertainty over global food supplies and escalating tensions in the region.
The pact, previously extended in May, will cease to be effective as of Tuesday, the foreign ministry in Moscow said in a statement. Russia had repeatedly threatened to leave the deal, which had marked a rare example of cooperation during its war in Ukraine. The corridor’s shutdown will hit key buyers like China, Spain and Egypt.
“Unfortunately, the part concerning Russia in this Black Sea agreement has not been fulfilled so far,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, according to Russian news agency Tass. “Therefore, it is terminated.”
It's all foreign institution buying palm oil shares while local institutions keep selling. Why? Cause local funds like to bet against retail investors so they keep selling retail favourites which are palm oil, tech and some glove shares. But this time is different
