VEGOILS-Market Factors to Watch May 25
25/05/2016 (Reuters) - The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Malaysian palm oil futures recovered from the previous session's near three-month low on Tuesday, supported by a weaker ringgit MYR= while gains in rival oils also boosted sentiment.
* Chicago wheat rose on Tuesday, lifted by short-covering and concerns about unfavorable rains for maturing U.S. crops.
* Oil rose about 1 percent on Tuesday on a boost from Wall Street and expectations of a drawdown in U.S. crude inventories, then prices jumped another 1 percent after settlement to nearly $50 a barrel after an industry group suggested the draw was larger than expected.
MARKET NEWS
* The dollar hit its highest against the euro in nearly 10 weeks on Tuesday, while U.S. bond prices dipped as expectations grew that the Federal Reserve could raise interest rates soon.
