VEGOILS-Market Factors to Watch May 11
11/05/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Malaysian benchmark palm oil futures rose for a second consecutive day as the ringgit MYR= weakened and stockpiles declined in the world's second largest palm producer.
* U.S. soybean futures surged more than 5 percent to their highest level in 18 months on Tuesday after the U.S. Department of Agriculture forecast that domestic stocks would fall more than most analysts expect by the end of the 2016/17 marketing year.
* Brent jumped 4 percent on Tuesday while U.S. crude settled up more than 2 percent, after a late burst of buying driven in part by expectations that record U.S. crude inventories would not swell by as much as they have in recent weeks.
MARKET NEWS
* Stock markets around the world rallied on Tuesday, helped by solid corporate earnings reports and higher oil prices supporting energy shares, while the yen again retreated sharply against the dollar.
