Global vegetable oil markets continue to trade quietly higher at midday amid a lack of direction with U.S. ag markets closed for Thanksgiving. Word that China rejected a load of Brazilian soybeans late Wednesday due to contamination (wheat seed) and President Donald Trump calling the Japanese leader to promote China's position on Taiwan may all be taken as positive signs for further soybean sales to China.

Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin has publicly stated that the only way Russia will agree to end the war is with Ukraine surrendering territory that Russia occupies. That has been adamantly opposed by Ukraine which is backed up by Europe. As such, energy markets are posting gains in thin electronic trade.

Outside markets are quietly mixed, trading more for order-filling purposes for those that need it than price discovery.
