Indonesia’s KPBN CPO Price Rises

The price increased IDR 42 per kg, or around 0.27%, from IDR 15,666 per kg on Thursday.
The contrasting price movements in Malaysia and Indonesia highlight different conditions across the two major palm oil markets. Bursa Malaysia came under pressure from concerns over higher stocks and production, while the KPBN CPO price in Indonesia continued to strengthen on a daily basis.
Market participants are expected to closely monitor developments in palm oil production, inventories and export demand for further signals on the direction of CPO prices. (P3)
