Ongoing sourcing controversies and weakening EU rules raise reputational and compliance risk for Indonesian palm oil. Policy loosening in the EU may reduce demand pressure on certified supply.
After 513 past neutral policy events, Palm Oil moved a median 0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.4%), and -0.1% over 20.
