04/08/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures surged to a six-week high on Wednesday evening, recording a fourth consecutive session of gains, as improved demand and a recovery in rival U.S. soy supported prices.

* U.S. wheat, corn and soybean futures rose on Wednesday, rallying on bargain hunting after all three key commodities fell to multimonth or multiyear lows a day earlier, traders said.

* Oil prices jumped more than 3 percent on Wednesday, with U.S. crude futures returning to above $40 a barrel, after a larger-than-expected gasoline draw offset a surprise build in crude stockpiles in the No. 1 oil consumer.

MARKET NEWS

* Global equity prices slipped for a third straight day on Wednesday on growing nervousness about central bank policy, even as Wall Street eked out a modest gain.
