Glacier FarmMedia — ICE canola futures were stronger Wednesday morning, seeing follow-through buying interest after Tuesday’s correction off nearby lows.
- Oversold price signals on the charts contributed to the gains, with end user bargain hunting also thought to be supportive.
- Improving cash basis levels in the countryside suggest steady commercial buying in the face of reluctant farmer selling, said an analyst.
- Chicago soyoil futures were higher in early activity, providing spillover support. European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil futures were also stronger, while Chicago soybeans held near unchanged.
- The ongoing lack of export demand from China kept a lid on the upside.
- The Canadian dollar was holding steady in early activity. The Bank of Canada left its key overnight rate unchanged at 2.25 per cent.
