Economic and Industry Overview

  • In 2Q2022 Palm oil is in strong demand worldwide, hence spot crude palm oil (CPO) prices are high. The crisis between Russia and Ukraine has halted sunflower oil exports. Both countries are major sunflower oil producers. As a result, many countries have to import palm oil as a substitute. Furthermore, Indonesia temporarily halts palm oil shipments, maintaining high palm oil prices. However, palm oil prices are expected to decline from the average price of the second half as it is the harvest season, resulting in more palm supply in the market. Indonesia has also launched a plan to boost exports by easing export regulations and slashing export taxes. Besides, the "Zero COVID- 19" policy in China has caused a fall in the country's economy and consumer spending. Additionally, the market's worries that the economic downturn will lead to a decline in purchasing power.

Furthermore, the world's major central banks, particularly the US Federal Reserve ( FED) , have begun to implement restrictive monetary policies by hiking interest rates or diminish the economics' liquidity.
  • Voluntary in crude oil price impact the Company's performance due to the fact that fuel cost classified as major transportation cost. In 2Q2022, average Brent crude oil price reported at USD 111.98 per barrel, surged by 62. 10% YoY as oil prices are surging to new highs since global economic activity recovers, The Russia- Ukraine War has increased global demand for oil. As a result, Europe has halted imports of Russian oil and natural gas. However, in July and August 2022, OPEC and its crude oil production allies constantly has decided to boost production capacity from 400,000 to 648,000 barrels per day likely result in the price of oil halting its rise.
