Trucklot buying activity was irregular
with most traders cautious and usually lim
iting their receipts to their immediate
neeeds. Offerings, for the most part, easily
handled the limited buyer interest. Retail
and distributive movement was mostly
reported as typical for the holiday season
with consumers centering their attention on
specific food items. The market tone was
mixed and cautiously steady.
