22/01/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures stretched their losses into a second straight session on Thursday to hit a four-day low, tracking weak crude and competing vegetable oil prices.

* U.S. corn futures fell on Thursday, breaking a three-day streak of gains, as a pick-up in country movement of the yellow grain pulled prices from one-month highs hit early in the session, traders said.

* Oil prices rebounded over $1 a barrel from 12-year lows on Thursday, their biggest daily gain this year, as rallying financial markets gave some bearish traders reason to take profits on record short positions.

MARKET NEWS

* Asian stocks gained early on Friday, after the markets were given some breathing space when the European Central Bank hinted of more monetary policy easing, while crude oil extended an overnight rally.
