# Analysts: Good CPO Price Needed To Offset Rising Input Costs

> GAPKI analysts say a Chinese reopening from zero-Covid policy could trigger a broader commodity rally and support crude palm oil exports. Malaysian planters report a labour shortage of about 55,000 workers that is cutting yields, and Malaysian stocks reached 2.4 million tons in October, 31% higher year on year.

## Why it matters

Expected Chinese demand recovery would support palm exports and prices, but high local stocks and rising labour costs limit the upside. Producers need sustained high prices to offset input cost inflation.
