Jetcraft is bullish on prospects for the preowned business aircraft sector for the remainder of 2026, anticipating balanced growth opportunities in a midyear report issued this week. The broker concluded that the market is emerging more stable from the post-pandemic adjustments that some commentators have interpreted as a slowdown.

For the rest of this year, Jetcraft indicated that increased output of new aircraft and changes in tax rules could be key drivers of trading conditions. “Production rates are gradually improving, inventory is beginning to recover in selected segments, and policy changes—including the introduction of 100% bonus depreciation in the U.S.—may encourage additional activity before we ring in a new year,” said CEO Chad Anderson.
