03/05/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures declined on Friday to a new seven-week low, as palm exports slow due to stronger demand for rival soyoil.

* U.S. soybean futures rallied on Monday, piggybacking on sharp gains in the soymeal market, while corn and wheat futures were steady to weaker.

* Oil prices fell about 3 percent on Monday as production from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries neared all-time peaks and record speculative buying in global benchmark Brent sparked profit-taking on last month's outsized rally.

MARKET NEWS

* A weakening U.S. dollar and optimism that commodity prices will steady boosted global stock markets on Monday, pushing down U.S. Treasury prices.
