BlackBook Weekly Market Insight<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u201cThe United Auto Workers strike continues, but last week\u2019s auction activity slowed down as buyers exercised caution while the negotiations with Ford, Stellantis, and General Motors seemed to be making small progress with counteroffers,\u201d BlackBook reported. \u201cAdditionally, sellers raised their floor prices last week, in an attempt to capitalize on the prior week\u2019s auction success with increased strength in valuations and conversion rates.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Compact cars, full-size crossover SUVs, full-size luxury crossover SUVs and small pickups increased in price last week. Compact cars were up $23 or 0.19 percent. Small pickups increased $77 or 0.33 percent. Full-size crossover SUVs had a 0.07 percent or $19 rise in price, and full-size luxury crossover SUVs were up $73 or 0.17 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sales rate at auction were down to 52 percent, a drop of 2 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAuction conversion rates dropped last week, while we also saw an increase in inventory across the country,\u201d BlackBook reported. \u201cIt appears there is a lot of uncertainty in the market right now, buyers and sellers aren\u2019t sure what to expect in the coming weeks and that was reflected with the lower conversion rates.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Retail prices dropped slightly on the retail price index to 0.97. The inventory index was up slightly to 1.02 points.
