Essential Auction News
|
Welcome to the September newsletter with the overall results for the past month, quarter and year. As usual August is a quiet month with only a handful of auctions being held and the numbers reflect this.
Kind regards David Sandeman Managing Director davids@eigroup.co.uk |
National Auction Analysis
| Being such a quiet month one cannot read too much into monthly comparisons, though the monthly totals do show a decline in all metrics used. The underlying trend for both quarterly and yearly comparisons also show declines, though less marked, with the exception of the yearly total amount raised that has climbed 1.7% when comparing September 2009 – August 2010 with September 2008 – August 2009. It will be next month's newsletter that will give a better indication as to what the trends are going forward. |
