Price Forecast Given at POSDOC (Oct 22, 2019)
Original price estimate given by the MPOC team:
➢ Based on our model of linking global SUR to palm oil prices, we forecast that palm oilprice in the Q4 of 2019 could reach RM2,566/MT and in Q1 of 2020 could reach aminimum high of RM2,900/MT.
➢ However, we opted not to even believe our own analysis and presented a lowerrevised price forecast as below:
➢ Based on our model of linking global SUR to palm oil prices, and assimilating otherexpert forecast and their trend models, we forecast that palm oil price in the Q4 of2019 and Q1 of 2020 could reach a high of RM2,430/MT.
➢ And the Gurus were too far off the reality curve!!!
Price Forecast – Scenario 1
➢ The Stock Usage Ratio (SUR) in 2020 for global oils and fats is at 14.85%
➢ Based on our model of linking global SUR to palm oil prices, we forecast that the lowfor palm oil in Q1 & Q2 of 2020 could hit RM2,947/MT matched by an average ofRM3,210.
➢ Among the factors putting downward pressure on price are:
➢ Anti-palm oil sentiments in emerging markets
➢ Substitution of palm oil with other oils especially in Europe
➢ Financial constraints in certain importing countries due to sanctions
➢ Legislations against palm oil use (Europe)
➢ Oversupply of other competing oils – Eg. USA is forecast to have record soybeanharvest while Europe will also see likelihood of higher sunflower seed production;both due to better average yields
➢ Price undercutting by other producing countries

SUR vs CPO Price
SUR CPO Price Forecasted CPO Average Forecasted CPO Higher Forecasted CPO Lower
Price Forecast – Scenario 2➢ Price volatility is an inherent feature of commodity production due partly to inelastic supply and demand.
Slight changes in the fundamental factors reflect a large impact on prices.
➢ Based on our model of linking global SUR to palm oil prices, we forecast that “the high” for palm oil price inQ1 & Q2 2020, could touch RM3,475/MT.
➢ Among the factors pushing the price upward are:
➢ Overall oils and fats, including palm oil consumption in 2020 will likely exceed production
➢ Implementation of the B20 blending in Malaysia which is expected to consume an additional 500,000MT domestically will force Malaysian stocks lower
➢ Implementation of B30 blends in Indonesia which will see and additional 2.5 to 3 million MT consumeddomestically. The B50 gearing has not even been factored here
➢ Higher demand for oils and fats from higher populated regions (Africa, ASEAN) and also countries likeChina and India
➢ Expected improvement in trade relations between two largest economies (US-China Trade Dispute)
➢ With low stock levels and firmer soybean oil and crude oil prices (geopolitical issues), CPO prices areforecasted to be higher in 2020 than in 2019
