Meanwhile, as reported by Reuters, crude palm oil futures on the Malaysian Derivatives Exchange closed lower on Monday, pressured by weaker prices of vegetable oils on the Dalian Exchange and a stronger ringgit.

The benchmark February 2026 palm oil contract fell RM 12 per ton, or about 0.3 percent, to RM 4,006 per ton at the close of trade.

A Kuala Lumpur-based trader said prices remain range-bound. “Futures are still moving within the 4,000 to 4,100 ringgit range, following weakness in Dalian and the stronger ringgit,” the trader said.

On the Dalian Exchange, the most-active soyoil contract fell 0.95 percent, while palm oil contracts slipped 0.96 percent. In contrast, soyoil prices on the Chicago Board of Trade edged up 0.12 percent.

Export performance also showed signs of weakness. Malaysian palm oil product exports during December 1–15 dropped 16.4 percent month-on-month, according to independent inspection company AmSpec Agri Malaysia. Data from Intertek Testing Services recorded a similar decline of 15.9 percent for the same period. (T2)
