We expect CPO prices to remain at ~MYR4,500/MT by 18 June 2026

The spot price for CPO (crude palm oil) declined over 1% w-w to MYR4,493/MT in the

week ended 11 June, according to the Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB). This we believe

was largely due to rising inventory levels in Malaysia and improving exports. For the next

week, we expect prices to remain relatively steady as concerns around higher palm oil

supply is balanced by rising exports. Overall, we expect the average CPO price to

remain at MYR4,500/MT by 18 June. However, if there is de-escalation of the West Asia

conflict, CPO prices could decline to ~MYR4,400/MT, in our view.
