ICE Canola Higher in Morning Trading

WINNIPEG, Manitoba--The ICE Futures canola market was posting solid gains Friday morning, seeing a corrective bounce off multi-month lows ahead of the weekend.

Gains in the Chicago soy complex provided spillover support, with European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil futures also up in overnight activity.

Canada exported 218,700 metric tons of canola during the week ended Oct. 22, according to the latest Canadian Grain Commission data. That was up slightly from the previous week and the largest monthly total of the 2023/24 crop year-to-date. However, total exports through 12 weeks of 1.306 million metric tons were down by 11% compared with the same time the previous year.

Domestic disappearance was down slightly on the week, although year-to-date level of 2.416 million metric tons was up by 12.7%.
