Story summary

The benchmark palm oil futures fell to a three-week low of 4,399 ringgit per metric ton, pressured by a stronger ringgit and unstable edible oil markets.
Prices then rebounded to 4,436 ringgit per ton on rising soyoil prices and optimism about US-China trade talks.
A firmer ringgit limited further gains by making exports more expensive.
Analysts warn that a drop below 4,409 ringgit could increase selling pressure.
