Dalian’s most active soyoil contract dropped 1.07%, while its palm oil contract rose 0.58%. Soyoil prices on the Chicago Board of Trade were up 0.27%. Palm oil is affected by price movements in related oils, as they compete for a share in the global vegetable oils market. Exports of Malaysian palm oil products for Dec. 1-15 fell between 4% and 9.1% from a month earlier, cargo surveyors reported.
