SYSTEM, METHOD AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR PREDICTING BEST/WORST TIME TO BUY

摘要

In response to a user request for information on the best/worst days in an upcoming time period to buy a commodity, a vehicle data system may determine anticipated daily discounts applicable to the commodity. An example commodity may be a vehicle of a specific configuration. In one embodiment, characteristics of month, day of week, and day of month may be gathered and fed into a Best Day to Buy model to determine, for each day of the time period, a projected daily discount relative to a set price for the commodity. Additional input variables such as incentives and seasonal discounts may be included. From the computed daily discounts, the vehicle data system may determine the best day and/or the worst day to buy and report same to the user.
