Soybean palm oil hits record high on bullish support
During the Spring Festival, Malaysian palm oil still performed strongly, rising by more than 2%. After the holiday, oil and fat futures ushered in a wave of compensatory gains, and the spot market followed the market. Due to the excessive increase in oil and fat, the price fell sharply after the sharp rise, and the rational callback was mainly due to the overall oscillating rise. The price of palm oil has continued to reach a first-line high of 11,200 CNY/ton, and the price of soybean oil is at 10,500 CNY/ton, continuing the historical high.
After the first wave of soybean oil and palm oil rose sharply, after a short period of consolidation, the market rose again. The main reason is the reduction of palm oil production in Malaysia, the impact of the dry weather of soybeans in South America, the expected increase in the production reduction of imported soybeans, the futures market continues to remain high, and the domestic soybean oil and palm oil spot is also rising. The first-line inventory of 360,000 tons is tight, and the supply is tight. Palm oil gained stronger than soybean oil. As of February 18, palm oil has risen above 11,800 CNY/ton, and soybean oil has reached a high of 10,700 CNY/ton.
There are many bullish factors in the external disk, and the spot inventory pressure of soybean oil and palm oil is less, and the market outlook is still running at a high level.
