The market tone was barely steady to
weak. Trading activity was sporadic as
buyers generally waited and watched
closely for further market developments.
Raw materials were more than adequate
for light processing needs. Breakers
attempted to reduce running time to avoid
building unwanted inventories.

Tmcklot buying interest continued irre
gular. Supplies of boneless skinless breasts
ranged fully adequate to dose balance.
Some sellers were oversold for late week
deliveries while others were looking for
buyer bids to dear available supplies. Line
run breasts were available at several loca
tions and trading was reported at
unchanged to lower prices. Most buyers
limited receipts to commitments and to
immediate needs. Yellow skin leg quarters
were difficult to clear, asking prices and
trading trended lower. Wings continued
short of trade needs but sales were repotted
at current prices.
