How does the skill define an 'Expanding' market?

A market is classified as Expanding when it meets three criteria: monthly volume growth exceeds 5%, the Days Supply ratio is under 50, and average sale prices are rising.

How is the Days Supply ratio calculated?

The skill uses the formula (active listings / monthly sold volume) x 30 to determine how many days of inventory are currently available at the current sales velocity.

How does it identify dealer groups?

It aggregates data from individual dealer locations using dealer IDs and seller names to identify parent groups like AutoNation, flagging them as potential consigners or buyers.

Does it require specific project configuration?

While it can work from manual input, it is optimized to load geography and segment preferences from a 'marketcheck-profile.md' project memory file.

Can this skill analyze automotive markets outside the US?

Yes, it supports the UK market with supply snapshots, though full demand velocity and sold data are currently exclusive to US regions.
