Reading Time: < 1 minute

Published: 3 hours ago

Glacier FarmMedia – Canola futures on the Intercontinental Exchange were higher in the middle of Tuesday trading amidst modest gains in crude and vegetable oils.

An oil tanker was struck by a drone off the coast of Dubai earlier today, which slightly raised crude oil prices. Chicago soyoil was steady, while European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil made gains.

An analyst said that canola is leaning bullish, according to the technicals for Chicago soyoil. Another analyst said he’s monitoring any demand disruption for vegetable oils, especially for the Asian markets. He said there’s the potential for a lack of diesel along with the possibility of fuel becoming too expensive.
