NATIONAL EGG MARKET - AT A
GLANCE: Trade sentiment was generally
steady though noted as increasingly cau
tious. Movement improved somewhat as
the first of the month and retail promotions
stimulated some additional interest. Sup
plies were usually in good balance for cur
rent needs. Breakers were more selective
and continued to work on previous
commitments.
