Industry News
Remarketing Strategy
The accelerating declining trend in weekly Manheim Market Report (MMR) prices that started in September peaked in October and started November still at an above average pace. However, by the last week in November, price declines normalized and even saw gains for a few segments. Three-year-old vehicle values in aggregate were down 1.6% for the month. As a result of the higher depreciation pattern from September through mid-November, prices in aggregate relative to the beginning of the year continue to be lower than either of the last two years.
Upcoming NAFA Events
