CPO Futures Extend Gains To Close Higher, Tracking Soybean Oil's Rise

By Engku Shariful Azni Engku Ab Latif KUALA LUMPUR, July 23 (Bernama) -- Crude palm oil (CPO) futures on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives extended gains to close higher on Wednesday, on the back of stronger soybean oil prices. Palm oil trader David Ng said lower CPO production in Indonesia also lifted market sentiment today. "We see CPO prices supported above RM4,250 and resistance at RM4,400," he told Bernama. At the close, the spot-month August contract gained RM48 to RM4,244 per tonne, the September 2025 contract added RM52 to RM4,298, and the October 2025 contract rose RM51 to RM4,315. The November 2025 contract advanced RM49 to RM4,320 per tonne, December 2025 climbed RM47 to RM4,317, and January 2026 gained RM51 to RM4,313. Trading volume rose to 75,900 lots from 75,575 on Tuesday, while open interest eased to 231,569 contracts from 231,767 previously. The physical CPO price for July South increased by RM50 to RM4,270 per tonne. -- BERNAMA

Mets Predicted to Steal Phillies Top Trade Deadline Target Luis Robert Jr. in Blockbuster Deal

Mets Predicted to Steal Phillies Top Trade Deadline Target Luis Robert Jr. in Blockbuster Deal originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Some players go from potential stars to being some of the most overrated players in Major League Baseball. For Philadelphia Phillies target Luis Robert Jr., that's what happened. Robert has shown promise throughout his career, but has frankly been way too injured for most of it, and is currently hitting .199 with a 67 OPS+. When diving into his numbers, it's fair to suggest that Robert has only had one good year in Major League Baseball, which was in 2023 when he was named an All-Star. He played in 145 games that season, by far the most of his career, and posted a 130 OPS+ with 38 home runs and 20 stolen bases. He still continues to steal bases at a high level, swiping 22 bags this year. However, the other numbers don't cut it. But for the Phillies, they might be willing to take a risk on the right-handed hitter. When searching for where he might end up, however, Sportsnaut recently predicted that he'd land with the New York Mets at the trade deadline. 'From that perspective, it makes the New York Mets an ideal trading partner. Mets owner Steve Cohen is more than willing to spend money to try and improve his team. This season, Mets' center fielders have posted a disastrous .225/.298/.365 triple-slash line. New York can eat the remainder of Robert's contract, less than $10 million total, in exchange for taking a chance on a change of scenery, helping him return closer to the form of a player who posted an .842 OPS from 2021-23,' they wrote. If the Phillies don't land Robert, it wouldn't be the biggest deal, but they have to hope he doesn't go to their NL East rival. Ultimately, he could be a game changer if he figures out a way to get back to his 2023 form. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 16, 2025, where it first appeared.

Russia must make reparations for MH17, Australia says

Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong has called for Russia to make reparations for the 2014 downing of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17, after the European Court of Human Rights found Moscow responsible for the tragedy. The Strasbourg court on Wednesday found Russia failed to verify the target of a missile that shot down a Malaysia Airlines aircraft with 298 people on board over Ukraine's Donetsk region on July 17, 2014. The ECHR also said that Moscow failed to protect the lives of those on board the Boeing 777, which was en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur when it was hit by an anti-aircraft missile fired by pro-Russian rebels. All 298 people on board were killed, including 38 Australians, 96 Dutch nationals and four Germans. Russia denies responsibility for the incident. "We welcome the European Court of Human Rights' ruling that Russia is responsible for the downing of Flight MH17," Wong said on X, calling it a "historic moment for the 298 victims and their loved ones". In May, the council of the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) also found Russia responsible for the aircraft's downing under international air law, in a case brought by Australia and the Netherlands. "This ruling follows the ICAO Council's decision in May that Russia is responsible and must negotiate with Australia and the Netherlands on full reparations," Wong said. "We again call upon Russia to face up to its responsibility and make reparations for this horrific act." The impact of the ECHR's decision is limited, as Russia does not recognise the court. Two Russians and a Ukrainian were sentenced in absentia to life imprisonment by a Dutch court in 2022 for murder in 298 cases. Russia continues to deny any responsibility and refuses to extradite the men. Russia was expelled from the Council of Europe following the 2022 invasion of Ukraine and is consequently no longer a member of the European Convention on Human Rights, which the court oversees. However, the court - which is independent of the European Union - can still rule on incidents that occurred up to six months after expulsion.
