17/10/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures rose on Friday evening, helped by a weaker ringgit earlier in the day and expectations of a decline in production.

* U.S. soybean futures rose on Friday, led by a surge in soyoil tied to firm domestic cash values and rising global vegetable oil prices, traders said.

* Oil prices fell slightly on Friday as traders balanced a stronger dollar and another increase in the U.S. oil rig count against expectations that more OPEC talk of output cuts will keep crude above $50 per barrel.

MARKET NEWS

* Global stocks and the dollar rebounded on Friday, buoyed at first by U.S. and Chinese data, but Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen later rattled investors when she said aggressive steps may be needed to address an economy whose potential is slipping.
