ZeroSum shows shopping slowing which could make for a difficult start to September. Inventory shortages are at record low levels (barely +1%) across the nation. While shopping has decreased this week (-4.7%) it has been strong enough to empty dealership lots of whatever core models are left. Some factories are running their truck lines at full capacity, but overall 2021 inventory comprises less than 0.5% of dealer lots (Last year new inventory comprised 9% of dealer lots).
