🚨 CPO prices breach RM5,000; Plantation index surges to 29-month high
• On Monday, Bursa Malaysia’s Plantation Index surged to a 29-month high, despite the broader market decline. According to a news article, analysts expect prices of crude palm oil (CPO) to remain elevated into 2025 as supplies tighten, ahead of Indonesia's plan to implement biodiesel containing a mandatory 40% blend of palm oil-based fuel (B40) from January next year.
