What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 15 yr, 17k mi example, ~$27.1K now. The green line weighs confirmed auction sales most heavily (the amber dots — what cars actually hammered for), blends in fast-selling "just-missed" listings, and lightly smooths out month-to-month composition noise.

Lead Indicator Forecast

Some indicators move before this market does. High-Yield Bond Spread has historically led it by about 20 months — so its recent move implies where prices head next (dashed). The solid green line is actual value through today; the shaded path is what the lead implies.

$27.6K now +20mo 2012-05 $44.8K $26.8K
BECAUSE credit spreads fell 7%. THEREFORE, given its usual 20-month head start, we lean UP — about +2% (≈ +$548) over the next 20 months. Confidence: Moderate (correlation -0.50, 19 months overlap).

Crystal Ball — What Leading Indicators Signal

Distinct from the trend forecast above: this blends all 8 leading indicators (each at its own lead time, de-duplicated so correlated ones don't double-count) into one signal. Leading indicators are collectively signaling higher over the next ~12 months (high conviction — 100% of weighted drivers agree), driven mainly by Effective Fed Funds Rate and Dow Jones Industrial.

⚠ The price trend and leading indicators disagree — momentum may be running ahead of the fundamentals.
