ICE canola firm at midday Monday

Glacier FarmMedia — The ICE Futures canola market was higher at midday Monday, taking back some of Friday’s losses in choppy sideways trade.

Gains in Chicago soyoil and soybeans provided spillover support. However, sharp losses in Malaysian palm oil in overnight activity and a softer tone in European rapeseed weighed on values.

The Canadian dollar was weaker, which underpins crush margins and makes exports more attractive to international buyers.

A lack of concrete movement on trade talks with China kept a lid on the upside, as Canada continues to miss its largest market for canola seed.
