The following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil edged higher on Tuesday, climbing from the last session's 1-1/2-week low on

expectations of a drop in output due to holidays at the end of the Muslim fasting month of

Ramadan.

* Chicago Board of Trade soybean futures rose 1.1 percent on Tuesday, snapping a streak of five

straight declines on a round of bargain buying after prices fell to their lowest levels since

late June, traders said.

* Crude oil futures held on to gains after a volatile session that saw the U.S. front-month

August contract expire and go off the board above $50 a barrel, with a weaker dollar providing

support.

MARKET NEWS

* Weak earnings dragged stocks lower on Tuesday and Apple's results weighed U.S. futures

further, while a slip in the dollar helped oil and gold cap a string of losing sessions.
