ICE Canola Futures Rise Amid Vegetable Oil Gains
The ICE Canola futures market saw an increase on Thursday morning, reversing the losses from the previous overnight session.
This gain was supported by the rise in vegetable oils, which were attempting to track upward despite crude oil's sharp decline. The Chicago soybeans and soymeal markets also showed gains, as well as European rapeseed. However, small declines in Chicago soyoil and Malaysian palm oil tempered this upside.
The November canola contract broke above its 20-day moving average, further underpinning the oilseed's values. The United States Department of Agriculture released its monthly world oilseed report on Wednesday, which raised Canadian canola production for 2026-27 by 500,000 tonnes to 22.5 million.
The Prairies are expected to see rain today, with temperatures ranging from the mid teens in the western half to the mid 20 degrees Celsius in Manitoba. The Canadian dollar dipped Thursday morning, trading at 71.74 U.S. cents compared to Wednesday's close of 71.79 cents.
