US Sell-Off Drives March Palm Oil to Parity with Soybean Oil

A broad sell-off in the U.S. equity market triggered profit-taking in commodity markets during U.S. trading hours resulting in the weakness in soybean oil values. The profit-taking followed sharply higher overnight prices, which drove West Texas Intermediate (WTI) futures down to more than $1.15 per barrel lower for the day from overnight gains of more than $1.25 per barrel that pushed the benchmark contract close to the psychologically critical $50 per barrel level. While Asian markets settled substantially higher, the weakness in U.S. markets will likely weigh on Asian commodity markets during Tuesday’s trading.
