IndustryInsight - Trends. Forecasts. Knowledge.

What is IndustryInsight?
IndustryInsight is your source for market intelligence. Each month, we give you a snapshot of Lift Truck data that’ll let you see where buying activity has been, and forecast where it might be heading so that you can proactively stay in touch with the needs and habits of your market.

In the charts below, you can compare ten years of UCC data reflecting the sale and lease activity of new versus used equipment. We’ve given you a glimpse of the top five buyers and the top twenty lenders in your industry, as well as a chart that plots the current year’s activity over a ten-year historical average. Take a look and see where we are today compared to last year, or compared to the last decade!

Understanding how and where buyers have been spending their money can help determine the scope of consumer spending, project growth for a certain product line, or identify the signs of a future downturn. Be a step ahead of the competition with EDA’s IndustryInsight.
