Palm oil prices shed early gains after traders flag short-lived recovery.

Subject: Palm oil prices shed early gains after traders flag short-lived recovery
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian palm oil futures shed early gains on Tuesday as traders feared that the surge in demand and exports would eventually lose steam if there is a second wave of COVID-19.

The benchmark palm oil contract for September delivery on the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange slipped 19 ringgit, or 0.78%, to 2,426 ringgit ($567.88) a tonne by the midday break, after rising as much as 0.86%.

Exports in June 1-20 rose between 55.3% and 57%, according to cargo surveyors, after an easing of coronavirus curbs and an export duty exemption.

However, the market lacks follow-up buying from destination markets such as China, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Europe to sustain the exceptionally strong June exports, said Anilkumar Bagani, research head of Mumbai-based vegetable oil broker Sunvin Group.

The Malaysian Palm Oil Council on Monday said exports are likely to increase further in the second half of the year, but a leading analyst cautioned that the global consumption of the edible oil would fall for the first time on record.

European Union palm oil imports in the 2019/20 season that started last July were down 11% at 5.55 million tonnes by June 21, official EU data showed.

Earlier in the session, markets were spooked by surprise comments from White House trade adviser Peter Navarro saying a hard-won U.S-China trade deal was "over", although he later said his comments had been taken out of context.

Dalian's most-active soyoil contract fell 0.21%, while its palm oil contract was down 0.39%. Soyoil prices on the Chicago Board of Trade dropped 0.75%.

Palm oil is affected by price movements in related oils as they compete for a share in the global vegetable oils market.

Palm oil may retreat moderately to a support at 2,408 ringgit, following its two failures to break a resistance at 2,479 ringgit per tonne, Reuters technical analyst Wang Tao said.
