Analyst Dorab Mistry raised his 2018 Indonesian palm oil output forecast to 40 million tonnes from 38.5 million, citing faster plantation expansion. He expects Malaysian end-2018 stocks to reach 3.0-3.3 million tonnes and Indonesian stocks to keep rising from near 5 million tonnes.
Higher output and heavy year-end stocks add supply pressure, and prices would need to fall toward about 2,100 ringgit to regain competitiveness.
