Trucklot buying activity remained light
and selective during midweek trading as
dealers saw no need to extend floor stocks
beyond current needs. Offerings of bone
less-skinless breasts were available at dis
counted levels and bone-m breasts were at
least sufficient. Tenderloins were noted as
closely cleared. Wings were fully suffi
cient and the balance of cuts ranged ade
quate to fully adequate. Retail and distri
butive draw was seasonally light. The
market tone was steady to fully steady on
tenderloins, barely steady to weak on
boneless-skinless breasts and wings: no
better than steady on the remainder of
items
