15/10/2015 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures saw a sharp rise in late trade on Tuesday, due to traders short covering and speculation of buying from China.

* U.S. soft red wheat futures fell 2 percent on Wednesday on profit-taking coupled with forecasts for beneficial rains next week in parts of the southern Plains and the Black Sea region, analysts said.

* Oil closed down on Wednesday and extended losses in post-settlement trade as worries about a growing supply glut kept crude under pressure this week, offsettting recent views that declining U.S. production would buoy prices.

MARKET NEWS

* Global equity markets slid for a second day and the dollar sank to a seven-week low on Wednesday as weak U.S. retail sales and a drop in producer prices boosted expectations the Federal Reserve will not raise interest rates until next year.
