Summer Doldrums Or Something More?

US Auto Sales Flat For July

Preliminary sales data indicates that the boom times for auto manufacturers may have peaked and they are now in a plateau phase.

"Low interest rates, longer loan terms and increased leasing are helping consumers afford their monthly payments, which would be upwards of $550 per month on a traditional 60-month term," said Tim Fleming, analyst for Kelley Blue Book.  "As the price gap to late-model used cars increases, more shoppers may turn to the pre-owned market for their next vehicle, which could mark a big departure from the new-car sales growth the industry has seen during the past five years."

Year-over-year sales for big manufacturers increased, but month-to-month figures did not grow substantially. Ford saw a decline of 3%. GM saw a decline of 1.9%. Fiat/Chrysler managed to eke out a slight increase of 0.3%. Nissan reported gains of 1.2%. Honda saw an increase of 4.4%. Toyota reported a decline of 1.4%.

In many cases, the sales figures showed that while trucks were increasing, an overall lower rate of car sales hampered the major manufacturers. This has led to increased concern that sales overall are slowing and starting to plateau. Of course, we have seen many sales records set since the end of the great Recession of 2008, and any pull back from records may not be indicative of trouble for the industry as a whole.

The release of the latest figures triggered some selling in the sector. Ford, GM, and Chrysler were all down as of this writing.
