The market tone was unsettled and
cautious. Trading was spotty and usually of
a fill-in nature as most buyers adopted a
wait and see position. Raw materials were
irregularly available and held with varying
degrees of confidence. Breakers worked
necessary schedules making adjustments
for the Memorial Day holiday. Floor stocks
were generally adequate to fully adequate.
