New Car Day Supply January 2020

What is "Day Supply": If a car dealer stops receiving new inventory, the day supply is the number of days it will take (at the
current rate of sale) for the dealer to run out of vehicles.

The lower the day supply number the healthier the dealer is as inventory is turning quickly.
