Palm oil rises
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian palm oil futures on Thursday extended gains for a second session, buoyed by stronger soyoil and technical buying, said traders.
The benchmark palm oil contract for December delivery on the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange was up 0.7 percent at 2,715 ringgit ($643.98) a tonne at the midday break, posting its biggest daily percentage gain since Oct. 4. Traded volumes stood at 15,117 lots of 25 tonnes each at the midday break on Thursday.
