Domestic Automotive Brands have Rebuilt Strong Inventories ahead of a Potential UAW Strike

Domestic automotive brands have rebuilt strong inventories ahead of a potential UAW strike. Stellantis, in particular, currently holds 136 days of supply at Dodge, 125 at Chrysler, 115 at Ram, and 95 at Jeep.  Historically, 60 days of inventory has been considered ideal.  UAW’s current contract is set to expire on September 14 as the two parties appear to remain far apart on terms.  The UAW most significant demands include a 46% raise over the four-year life of the contract, a return to traditional pension payment plans and a limits on the use of temporary workers and forced overtime.
