Malaysia's end-May palm oil stocks seen down as exports hit 5-month high


KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's palm oil inventories at the end of May are set to fall for a sixth month out of seven, squeezed by declining production and as exports surged to the highest since December, a Reuters survey showed on Friday.

The stockpile in the world's second-largest producer is pegged to shrink 6% from the month before to 1.54 million tonnes, according to the median estimate of 11 planters, traders and analysts polled by Reuters.
