Crude-degummed (CD) and refined, bleached, and, deodorized (RBD) soybean oil basis indications were steady to a touch firmer this week. However, very little actual trading was done, market participants said.

This was evidenced by the most recent monthly figures from the U.S. National Oilseed Processors Association (NOPA).
