11/01/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets on Monday Jan 11.

FUNDAMENTALS
*  Malaysian palm oil futures bounced back on Friday after two days of losses as market focus shifted to a major industry report due early next week, which is forecast to show a decline in production.
* U.S. grain and soybean futures firmed on Friday on technical buying and short-covering as investors squared positions before a key government crop report due to be released on Tuesday.
 
* Oil fell for a fifth straight day on Friday, losing 10 percent on the week, and Goldman Sachs said more losses were needed to force producers to cut supplies adequately to balance the glut and bleak demand outlook in the market.
   
MARKET NEWS
* Asian share markets faced a testing time on Monday after Wall Street suffered its worst starting week in history and doubts over Beijing's policy choices sent investors into the arms of the safe-haven yen and sovereign bonds.
