KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 28 (Reuters) - The following factors are
likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures on Wednesday.
CRUDE OIL
-- Oil fell more than 3 percent on Tuesday on expectations
OPEC will boost supply and concerns U.S. economic problems will
grind down demand growth.
Saudi Arabia's oil minister, Ali al-Naimi, said the kingdom
had already increased production beyond targets set under an OPEC
deal to boost output from Nov. 1.
U.S. oil <CLc1> tumbled $3.28 to settle at $94.42 a barrel,
off earlier lows of $94.21. It extended losses to $93.99 a barrel
in early Wednesday trade.
SOYOIL
-- Soybean futures at the Chicago Board of Trade slid Tuesday
on spillover selling from crude oil and a firmer dollar, traders
said.
CBOT soyoil closed 0.39 to 0.75 cent lower, with December
<BOZ7> 0.39 cent weaker at 46.30 cents. It was down to 46.09
cents in electronic trade during Asian hours on Wednesday.
-- High international soybean prices often translate into
aggressive expansion on Brazil's soybean frontiers, but the
34-year high that Chicago soy futures hit on Monday has come too
late to affect this year's planting. [ID:nN27478336]
-- China is likely to continue its soybean purchasing surge
and more sales are likely to be won by the U.S., Hamburg-based
oilseeds analysts Oil World forecasts. [ID:nL264741]
PALM OIL
-- Malaysian crude palm oil futures dropped 1.7 percent on
Tuesday, drawing back from a record high hit the day before as
players seized the opportunity to sell after crude and soyoil
markets declined in Asian trade.
The market fell past the 3,000 ringgit level on talk that
exports will take a huge hit due to the red hot palm prices,
which are up nearly 50 percent this year.
-- Exports of Malaysian palm oil products for November 1-25
rose 0.7 percent to 1,126,683 tonnes from 1,119,011 tonnes
shipped between October 1-25, cargo surveyor Intertek Testing
Services said on Monday.
Another cargo surveyor, Societe General de Surveillance, said
exports in the same period fell 0.4 percent to 1,107,615 tonnes.
