13/09/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures, recording a second week of gains, rose on Friday on firmer rival oilseed soy and on a weaker ringgit MYR=, while bullish forecasts ahead of the release of government data next week also supported the market.

* U.S. soybean futures tumbled after the U.S. Department of Agriculture increased its record-large domestic yield estimate more than expected on Monday, easing concerns that strong export sales could eat into inventories.

* Oil prices ended nearly 1 percent higher on Monday as a softer dollar and stronger U.S. equity markets helped crude futures rebound from an early drop pressured by worries about increased drilling activity for oil in the United States.

MARKET NEWS

* U.S. stocks led global shares higher on Monday after Federal Reserve policymakers sounded cautious notes on near-term interest rate increases, while the U.S. currency slipped.
