SunSirs: Analysis of the Impact of the 87% Sudden Decrease in US Soybean Oil Sales
March 03 2026 11:08:26 SunSirs (Selena)
As of the week ending February 19, 2026, the net sales of soybean oil in the United States for the year 2025/26 were 1,500 tons, a decrease of 87% compared to the previous week and an 84% decrease from the four week average.
The article shows that the net sales of soybean oil in the United States in 2025/26 were only 1,500 tons, a decrease of 87% from last week and an 84% decrease from the four week average, indicating a sharp decline in demand. This poses a significant negative impact on the spot price of soybean oil, as a sharp drop in sales may lead to inventory accumulation and selling pressure in the spot market, resulting in a downward trend in prices. At the same time, combined with the latest market trend of soybean oil futures (such as the closing price of the main contract 2605 at 8,260 RMB/ton up 28 RMB), although some contracts are currently performing strongly, sales data, as a negative signal for core fundamentals, may exert significant downward pressure on futures prices, reflecting the market's pessimistic expectations for future demand.
