GLANCE
Prices were generally unchanged on the
larger sizes, but lower on mediums in New
York, Philadelphia, and Chicago. The
market tone was mixed and tanged from
cautiously steady on larger sizes to barely
steady and weak on lighter weights.
Demand was unaggressive but generally
fair as movement was reported in a foil
range of light to good. Some locations
reported that retail demand had Improved
from early week business. Grade loose
large was adequate to available, mediums
were irregular but available. Breaking
stock supplies were sufficient even though
interest had improved. However, in the
Central region checks and undergtades
were trending lower. Availability of light
type hens were folly adequate to ample for
current needs.
