Futures News, May 5th - According to foreign media reports, Malaysian palm oil futures rose for the second consecutive trading day, supported by a weaker ringgit and market optimism regarding Malaysias biodiesel program. However, declines in crude oil and soybean oil prices limited further upside. On the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange (BMD), the benchmark palm oil contract for July delivery steadily rose in early trading. In the crude oil market, prices, which had previously surged sharply, retreated significantly due to signs of potential easing in the situation regarding the blockade of key Middle Eastern waterways. The weakening of crude oil futures prices directly reduced the attractiveness of palm oil as a substitute for biodiesel feedstock.Israel Defense Forces: In two separate incidents over the past few hours, Hezbollah fired several mortar shells at areas where the IDF is operating in southern Lebanon.

They believe that gold can perform well even if the Fed keeps rates unchanged, provided forward guidance indicates an imminent rate cut.

Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO) HBC AG announced a higher-than-anticipated operating profit for 2022 on Tuesday, aided by pricing increases and cost-cutting efforts.


However, the bottler anticipates organic operating profit growth between +3% and -3% in 2023.


For the year ending December 31, Coca-Cola HBC reported earnings of 703.8 million euros ($755.5 million), which was above the company-compiled analysts' estimate of 658.2 million euros.


Although there has been a shift in consumer spending due to customers' preference for cheaper options in the face of rising inflation, demand for packaged beverages and foods has remained robust despite price increases.


The wide portfolio of the Switzerland-based firm includes alcoholic beverages such as The Macallan and Jack Daniel's, fizzy drinks Sprite and Monster Energy, and Bambi cookies and wafers.


According to the company-compiled consensus, analysts anticipate an organic operating profit of around 865,6 million euros in 2023, representing a year-over-year increase of 23%.
