Combined with an increase in inventory levels, palm oil inventories in Malaysia increased by 7.58% at the end of December compared to the previous month. Long and short positions are overlapping, and the Malaysian palm oil market is fluctuating in the external market. The domestic palm oil futures market mainly fluctuated with the market, with a high inventory of about 750,000 tons of palm oil in China, an increase of over 1% month on month. The terminal demand was average, and the palm spot market rose by nearly 2%.
