Malaysian palm oil/Vegoils: Market factors to watch on Wednesday June 3


KUALA LUMPUR: The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets on Wednesday June 6.
    
FUNDAMENTALS
* Malaysian palm oil futures hit a three-month high on Tuesday, extending gains into a fourth
straight session, buoyed by an overnight rally in soyoil markets and a weak ringgit. 
* U.S. corn, soybean and wheat futures rallied on Tuesday, supported by a steep decline in the
dollar that made all three commodities more attractive to investors looking for a hedge against
inflation, traders said. 
* Oil prices rose on Tuesday, driven by a weak dollar and expectations that U.S. crude supplies
could have fallen last week for a fifth straight week. 
    
MARKET NEWS
* U.S. stocks edged down on Tuesday while the dollar fell and bond yields rose as investors
sought clarity on Greece's debt crisis and awaited the U.S. jobs report.
