Tiucldot buying activity continued of a
very light and spotty nature. Offerings
were fully adequate with bonc-in breasts
starting to struggle for placement. Move
ment through most retail and distributive
establishments remained disappointing
with dealers having difficulty assessing
their needs. The market tone was barely
steady with underlying trade sentiment
increasing in its cautknsness.
