VEGOILS-Market Factors to Watch June 2
02/06/2015 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Malaysian palm oil futures rallied nearly 4 percent to their highest in 2-1/2 months on Monday, tracking a jump in overseas soyoil markets and further underpinned by strong exports for the month of May.
* U.S. wheat futures rallied 3.4 percent on Monday, bouncing off of their lowest in nearly three weeks, on a round of short-covering, traders said.
* Oil settled down as much as 1 percent on Monday, retreating from Friday's sharp rally on a strong dollar and concern over stubbornly high supplies as OPEC was expected to stick with robust production at its meeting this week.
MARKET NEWS
* The U.S. dollar gained on Monday after a round of economic data kept expectations alive for an interest rate hike from the Federal Reserve this year, while the euro fell on worry about Greece's financial crisis and soft euro zone data.
