- The merchandise inventories exhibited a fluctuating trend over the examined period. Starting at approximately 1,124,992 thousand US dollars in early 2019, the inventory level decreased slightly to 1,100,544 thousand US dollars by early 2020. This downward movement continued into early 2021, reaching the lowest point of around 1,006,299 thousand US dollars. However, from 2021 onward, the inventories reversed this trend, increasing significantly to 1,246,372 thousand US dollars in early 2022 and further to a peak of 1,456,123 thousand US dollars by early 2023. In the most recent period, early 2024, the inventory level declined again to 1,246,369 thousand US dollars.
- This pattern suggests a period of inventory reduction during 2019 to 2021, potentially reflecting adjustments to demand or supply chain strategies. The subsequent increase in 2022 and 2023 could indicate stocking up in anticipation of higher sales or addressing supply constraints. The decline in 2024 may represent efforts to optimize inventory levels or respond to changing market conditions.
