🌴 Palm Oil: Weak Exports Meet Rising Stocks – But Prices Still Find Support 🌴
📊 Palm oil is sending mixed signals. 🇮🇩 Indonesia’s March CPO PKO production fell 12.35% m/m, while total exports dropped even faster – down 34.25% m/m to 2.168 million tonnes. The sharpest losses came from CPO exports, which plunged 75.61%, with weaker shipments to key buyers including 🇨🇳 China, 🇮🇳 India, 🇵🇰 Pakistan and 🇧🇩 Bangladesh.
📦 The result: stocks rose to 2.568 million tonnes, up from 2.026 million tonnes a month earlier – a clear sign of looser nearby supply despite stronger year-to-date production and exports versus 2025.
🇲🇾 Malaysia is adding another cautious signal: May 1–25 exports were down 18% by Amspec and 14.5% by ITS. Still, futures gained over 1%, supported by firmer rival oils, higher crude oil prices, a weaker ringgit and weather-risk chatter.
📌 The physical balance looks heavier, but external markets are helping keep price sentiment supported for now.
👇 Will external support be enough to offset the softer export signals in the palm oil market?
