Part 12/19:
While signs of stabilization are emerging, such as slight improvements in inventory levels and early indicators of rising buyer interest, recovery remains uncertain. The Federal Reserve hints at possible rate cuts later this year, which could ease borrowing costs and stimulate demand. Manufacturers are quietly reducing model lines and trimming features, signaling an attempt to adapt to the new reality.
Industry experts suggest that it could take at least a year for supply and demand to realign, with true market bottoms indicated by:
Inventory levels dropping below 90 days
Stabilization in used-price guides
Consistent increases in buyer traffic during spring and summer
