Palm oil falls

Published September 21, 2019

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian palm oil fell for a third straight day on Friday, tracking a drop in related edible oils and as slowing exports raised concerns of higher inventories.

The benchmark palm oil contract for November delivery on the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange was down 0.94 per cent at 2,224 ringgit ($533.59) per tonne at close, after falling 1.8pc in the previous two sessions.
