Owing to encouraging reports from America, where a severe shortage of stocks is now being experienced, in Japan the vegeta- ble oil market has been growing very firm of late. Soya bean oil is quoted at present in the vicinity of Y35 per 100 kin for January and February delivery. ground nut oil at about Y43.50 for. December and January delivery - speculative price, and about Y4 higher than American ideas. Cotton-oil is also firm, standing in the neighbourhood of 41 for spot. The tendency of the mar| ket is towards further activity. It must, however, be noted that the trade with Englar and France, though there is a fairly large demand from those coun- tries. is at present harpered through the unfavourable rate of exchange, or, rather by the reluc- tince of British and French buyers to admit the depreciation NILA LINE Evicted with Marila by vastels with good i antiguo 1990)
