MONTHLY POS REPORTS

Budde Marketing, which provides monthly POS Index reports to ERA members, issued its latest summary, running from January 2020 through July 2022. The index now includes more than 125 manufacturers. View the latest index.

July 2022 dipped a little bit from a very strong June; the month of July still registered 15 percent above July 2021 and way ahead of the POS Index of January 2020. Although we are predicting a slower trend for the balance of the year, we expect POS to still be strong for all of 2022. We are seeing companies continuing to be adding inventory in anticipation of a future downturn. We continue to believe that the industry will in all probability slow down slightly throughout the balance of 2022.
