Thebust in perry mason's office following factors are likely to influence Malaysian palm oil futures and

other vegetable oil markets.

FUNDAMENTALS

* Malaysian palm oil futures closed slightly down on Monday as a stronger

ringgit weighed on the last trading day of 2018, charting a second consecutive

year of declines as high inventories and weak demand pushed down prices.

* U.S. wheat futures fell more than 1 percent on Monday in thin, technically

driven trade, brokers said, but still posted a yearly gain of nearly 18

percent.

* U.S. oil began 2019 in positive territory on Wednesday, although the general

outlook for the year is weak amid soaring U.S. crude supply and concerns of an

economic slowdown.

MARKET NEWS

* Asian shares crept cautiously higher on the first trading day of the new year

as early gains in U.S. stock futures spoke of some improvement in risk appetite.
