05/02/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures ended lower on Thursday and snapped two sessions of gains after hitting a 20-month high earlier in the session, on the back of a stronger ringgit and weaker export demand.

* Wheat futures on the Chicago Board of Trade fell 1.5 percent on Thursday on disappointing U.S. export sales data, traders said.

* Oil fell 2 percent in volatile trading on Thursday, as support from a weakening dollar was overshadowed by scepticism that cash-strapped OPEC member Venezuela's effort to lobby crude producers for joint output cuts would succeed.

MARKET NEWS

* Asian equities edged up on Friday, taking early inspiration from an overnight rise on Wall Street, while the dollar wobbled ahead of the closely watched U.S. jobs report.
