Expectations are not being met in the lanes. \n\nSellers are not getting the money they were hoping to get and are no longer selling at 90%. We're seeing the average seller back selling around 40-50%.\n\n2. Market reports can't report no sales. \n\nMarket reports report what sells. When people aren't selling, the report can't adjust to the market. Anyone relying on market reports to buy, continue to buy at prices that are not relevant to the market. \n\nMarket reports are your enemy because they can't adjust until people start selling to the market. Until then... relying on them could get you into trouble! "}
