Palm oil futures on the Malaysian Derivatives Exchange gained around 0.7 to 1.4% across listed months as of 30 October. The gains came as Malaysian stocks built sharply and exports stayed soft.
Traders are also pricing in possible yield losses from a developing super El Niño that could curb Southeast Asian output into 2027.
High Malaysian inventories cap near-term prices, but the El Niño risk to 2027 production supports a firmer forward curve. Feed buyers should expect palm-linked costs to stay volatile.
After 181 past bullish weather events, Palm Oil moved a median +0.5% over 5 sessions (56% higher; middle half -0.9% to +1.9%), and +0.3% over 20.
