20/10/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil strengthened on Wednesday evening, tracking stronger performing rival soyoil, after a market correction on weaker exports pulled it down in early trade.

* U.S. soybean futures rose on Wednesday on technical buying, export demand and spillover strength from crude oil, analysts said.

* Oil prices jumped more than 2 percent on Wednesday, with U.S. crude settling at its highest in 15 months after the government reported a surprisingly large drop in inventories for the sixth week out of seven.

MARKET NEWS

* Crude oil prices rose to a 15-month high on Wednesday after a surprise U.S. inventory drawdown, boosting energy shares.
