Malaysian palm oil futures recouped earlier losses to rise 1 percent on Friday, tracking strength in crude oil prices.

KUALA LUMPUR: The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets on Tuesday April 9.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures retreated from a six-week top on Monday evening, falling over 1 percent to snap five sessions of gains, tracking weaker soybean oil prices on the U.S. Chicago Board of Trade and in a technical correction.

* U.S. corn futures declined on Monday as traders adjusted positions a day ahead of a monthly supply-and-demand report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture in which the government is expected to raise its forecast of U.S. corn ending stocks.
