Trading activity improved under an
active and growing inquiry. The market
tone was fully steady to firm. Higher feed
costs have many sellers reassessing their
positions as costs of raw materials climb.
Most breakers continue to fill previous
commitments. Floor stocks were usually
sufficient to cover current trade needs.
