about 2 months ago by Calculated Risk @ Calculated Risk

From WardsAuto: March U.S. Light-Vehicle Sales Tracking a Steady Course with Potential Upside (pay content).  Brief excerpt:If the March forecast holds firm, the first quarter will total a 15.5 million-unit seasonally adjusted annual rate, down from Q4-2023’s 15.7 million but up from like-2023’s 15.0 million. However, the forecasted steady climb in inventory should put sales in good stead to rise above 16-million-unit annualized rates for most of the remainder of 2024. emphasis added<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_ny18c7aqj3fKpdlNntIEojDDeaeUWe6GguQt19h-k7uz63I6fKvnMFccyGcY0ABuvUUvJkkk4rVUqzJd-_kfpcYvTrfXm6P2J-bWUjit3qGwI6OBZV7VzllJGn9_t18-i6PP14IFJui2NcZm4m6ihRS0UCbucHv6S4JcGuo0eUoKLHCT_CFY/s969/VSForecastMar2024.PNG" style="margin-l...
