KUALA LUMPUR, Crude palm oil (CPO) futures contract on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives closed lower on Monday as stronger ringgit seemed to curb further demand for palm oil, said a dealer. Palm oil trader David Ng said that the weakness in soybeans also weighed on the sentiment. 'We see support at RM3,900 and resistance at RM4,050,' he told Bernama. At the close, the spot month October 2024 contract dropped RM35 to RM4,124 per tonne, November 2024 contracted by RM59 to RM4,037, while the benchmark December 2024 fell by RM56 to RM3,995.
