The market was mostly quiet again on Wednesday, with the majority of offices operating in a very limited capacity due to the holidays. Distiller’s corn oil (DCO) traded as low as 43 cts/lb delivered Manly, IA for the nearby and 1-month positions in sizeable volume in trucks.

The Gulf yellow grease market eased slightly. Gulf used cooking oil (UCO) bids were indicated at 38 cts/lb delivered but no trading was confirmed at that level.
