Por qué importa
Inventory changes feed directly into GDP: building stocks adds to growth, running them down subtracts. A pile-up of unsold goods can foreshadow cuts in production.
Cómo se calcula
Businesses report the book value of their stocks and sales; the inventory-to-sales ratio shows how many months of sales are on the shelves.
Qué significan los cambios
- Rising inventories with falling sales are a warning sign; with rising sales they are healthy restocking.
- Markets react little except where the figure changes GDP estimates.
Una breve historia
Inventory cycles were first described by Joseph Kitchin in the 1920s ("Kitchin cycles" of about 40 months).
