Bloomberg•10 days agoFestival of Lights May Spark Palm Demand in World's Top Buyer
With production in top growers climbing and prices hovering near three-year lows, the last chance to arrest palm oil’s decline this year is Indian demand ahead of Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights that’ll be widely celebrated in the top importer in November. Purchases of the tropical oil by India may surge about 10 percent from a year earlier to 2.4 million metric tons in the October-December quarter on cheaper palm and tight domestic vegetable oil supplies, according to a Bloomberg survey of five buyers, traders and analysts. Palm is cheaper and that’s boosting imports amid the festival season demand, said Sandeep Bajoria, chief executive officer of Sunvin Group, a Mumbai-based broker and consultant for the oilseeds industry.
