Glacier FarmMedia – Canola futures on the Intercontinental Exchange continued to rise higher on Wednesday, although the gains have cooled from earlier today.
Chicago soyoil and Malaysian palm oil were up while European rapeseed was mostly higher in the middle of trading. Crude oil maintained its unfettered rise, gaining more than US$2.50 per barrel after Israel attacked Iran’s South Pars offshore oil field earlier today.
An analyst said oil prices should be higher, while the markets seem to act from a “glass is half-full” perspective.
