Vegetable-oil supply prices in Egypt were reported to have risen by as much as 35% since early July, with imported oils affected by a stronger dollar and shipping problems in the Black Sea region, alongside higher freight and insurance costs. By early November, crude soybean oil was quoted at about $1,426 per tonne, refined soybean oil at $1,537, refined sunflower oil at $1,852, and refined palm olein at $1,463.
Higher import costs from currency depreciation and shipping, freight, and insurance constraints raise landed prices for Egyptian oil buyers. These pressures are bullish for imported vegetable oils, particularly soybean and palm oils.
After 85 past bullish logistics events, Soybean Oil moved a median +0.7% over 5 sessions (64% higher; middle half -1.3% to +2.7%), and +3.1% over 20.
After 15 past bullish logistics events, Palm Oil moved a median -0.1% over 5 sessions (47% higher; middle half -2.4% to +3.9%), and +0.5% over 20.
