what happened

Canola futures on the Intercontinental Exchange extended losses in mid-session Wednesday, pressured by weaker vegetable oils. Chicago soyoil, European rapeseed and Malaysian palm oil all traded lower. Crude oil moved choppily as Middle East exports continued despite attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. Dow Jones Newswires reported the move, citing Glacier FarmMedia data.
