Wow! The Inventory has increased 60% since 2005. That is amazing. But notice how the prices are holding steady - there is some ray of hope for Sellers. But right now there is 9 months worth of inventory! That means the competition for the available buyers is ferocious and will not likely fade very soon. Time will tell what this all means...
