Vegoils: Market Factors to Watch Wednesday May 27
27/05/2015 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets on Wednesday May 27.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Malaysian palm oil futures rose to their highest in nearly two weeks on Tuesday, pulling up from three-week lows in the previous session, boosted by a jump in overseas edible oil markets and strong export demand.
* U.S. wheat futures plunged more than 4 percent on Tuesday as pressure from a strong dollar and technical selling outweighed concerns about crop damage due to heavy rain in the southern Plains.
* Oil prices fell nearly 3 percent on Tuesday as the dollar's rally weighed on dollar-denominated crude oil futures along with concerns that a recent rally might keep U.S. producers active.
MARKET NEWS
* The U.S. dollar rallied on Tuesday after a string of healthy economic data boosted near-term rate hike prospects, while Greece's financial crisis and signs of growing opposition to austerity in Spain weighed further on the euro.
