ICE Canada Morning Comment: Canola Continuing to Fall Back

Grade Bbearish AI signal

ICE canola futures continued to fall Wednesday as declines in crude oil and competing vegetable oils weighed on the market. Canada's 2026-27 canola carryover projection was trimmed by 11,000 tonnes to 1.97 million tonnes, while Manitoba's harvest reached 92% completion as of October 20. Continued weakness in crude and competing oils could pressure canola futures, although the lower projected carryover may offer some support.

Equities likely to snap 3-session fall as GIFT Nifty signals firm start for D-Street

Indian equities could snap a three-session losing streak on Friday, with GIFT Nifty signaling a higher open after the Sensex and Nifty fell around 2% this week. GIFT Nifty traded at 22,846 against Thursday's Nifty close of 22,687.65, while Brent crude surged to $113.50 per barrel and foreign investors sold Indian equities worth Rs 3,458.70 crore. A recovery could gain traction if the Nifty clears 22,900 and sustains above 23,000, but elevated oil prices and continued foreign outflows may limit gains.

US Natgas Prices Fall Back to 2-Month Low

US natural gas prices fell to $2.76 per MMBtu, their lowest level in two months, as forecasts for mild weather weakened expectations for heating demand. Above-average temperatures are expected across the Midwest and East through November 5, while gas storage rose by 77 bcf, below the five-year average of 87 bcf. Natural gas prices could remain under pressure if mild weather curbs consumption, despite strong LNG export demand and lower domestic production.

Soybeans Rebound on Strong Export Demand

Soybean futures rebounded toward $12.60 per bushel as strong export demand, led by China, ended an eight-session losing streak after prices hit a two-month low.

Bitcoin, gold trim early losses as yen gives up gains. Oil stays near $100

Bitcoin and gold pared early losses as the Japanese yen surrendered its gains, while Asian stocks and Nasdaq futures also recovered. Bitcoin rebounded toward $82,000 after dipping below $81,000, while gold recovered to $4,020 per ounce and WTI crude remained near $100; U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $381 million in outflows on Thursday. Persistent oil prices and weak spot Bitcoin ETF demand could limit a sustained crypto recovery, while renewed inflation concerns may continue to pressure risk assets.
