Malaysian palm oil futures fell 1.12% on July 31 as weaker rival edible oils, including Chicago soyoil and Dalian palm olein, pressured the market. Cargo surveyors estimated July palm exports fell between 6.7% and 9.6%, adding to concerns over rising output and sluggish export demand.
Softer soyoil and weak exports point to near-term downside for palm and rival vegetable oils, with palm's discount to soyoil still shaping Indian demand. Lower crude oil also reduces palm's attractiveness as biodiesel feedstock.
