A mid-year look at how dealers' expectations for 2015 are shaping up indicate that, on average, those responding to the July “Dealer Sentiments & Business Conditions Update” survey are looking for a year-over-year falloff of 15%. A year ago, dealers were forecasting a 6% year-over-year decline for 2014.
Dealers report that average sales were down 8% year-over-year in March, which is a 4% improvement over the previous month’s average sales decline, according to the April 2015 “Dealer Sentiments & Business Conditions Update.”
Starting off 2015, dealers surveyed by Ag Equipment Intelligence and Cleveland Research Co. say that, on average, they’re expecting overall sales to decline 11% for the year. Compared to what the major equipment manufacturers are forecasting, the dealers' outlook appears almost optimistic.
