Autos and buidling materials are at their highest levels of inventories relative to sales since the financial crisis leaving overall business inventories-to-sales ratio hovering near cycle highs at 1.40x. A 0.2% rise in inventories (bigger than expected) matched the 0.2% rise in sales MoM but YoY it’s a different picture with sales down 0.3% and inventories up 0.9% (with retailers seeing inventories surging 6.1%).
This will not end well… no matter how high stocks go!
