## About Retail egg features: national large white conventional

Retail feature activity is USDA's weekly read on how hard grocery stores are advertising eggs. The headline here is feature intensity: how many stores ran a feature for this egg that week, summed across pack sizes. It is a demand-side signal, not a wholesale price. Heavy featuring usually goes with ample, cheap supply, and features pull back when a shock makes eggs scarce and expensive, so a falling store count against a rising benchmark is the demand side backing away from a tight market. The advertised carton price shown alongside is what shoppers see in the ad, in dollars per carton, a different unit from the wholesale benchmark.
