# Palm loses gains, falls to 5-mth low tracking weaker rival soy

> Malaysian palm oil futures slid to a five-month low on Friday, down 0.5% at RM2,646 a tonne, and fell 14.5% over the quarter. The drop followed weaker Chicago soyoil ahead of a USDA report expected to show larger soybean supplies, even though March palm exports rose about 7% month on month.
