AINsight: Are There Five Buyers Instead of 10?
Actual demand for preowned business aircraft could be obscured by extremely low inventory.

If preowned business aircraft inventory remains in short supply, the market will feel the same regardless of if there are five buyers rather than 10. Said differently, we as an industry could be being fooled about demand.

It could be shrinking, and we may not notice until it is too late because the supply side of the equation may mask the reality. Only if supply increases will the real demand come to light, of course.
