Canola Futures Tumble Amid Crude Oil Price Drop
ICE Canola futures plummeted on Monday morning following a decline in crude oil prices. The market was influenced by the recent de-escalation of tensions between the US and Iran, with Pakistan urging both sides to return to negotiations.
Crude oil prices dropped by at least $4 per barrel, while soyoil lost over one cent per pound. European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil also fell in value.
The Canadian dollar depreciated by two-tenths of a US cent compared to Friday's close, with nearly 23,600 contracts traded.
