Sandhills Global reported lower year-over-year inventories across four pre-owned aircraft markets and multiple heavy-equipment categories in August 2026. Used large jets posted the sharpest aviation decline at 37.73%, while heavy-duty construction equipment fell 2.56% month over month and 10.45% year over year. Aviation asking prices were mixed by category; heavy-duty construction asking values rose 0.52% monthly and auction values increased 0.31%, although both declined annually. Dealers reported slower sales and more cautious buyers, while rental demand remained strong. Sandhills' Equipment Value Index, or EVI, tracks estimated used-asset values across auction and retail markets and model-year equipment actively in use.
