Industry Info:

This is a new search Platform for Standards and Poors; to me it is a little complicated.

There is SO much information here.

Simply, for me, this is the best way to get to industry reports.

Open the database.

In the tabs across the top you will see Industry Surveys.

Click on that.

You will see a table that starts with Contributor.

Look down from Left to Right for Headline.

Click Headline to rearrange the table for that column to relist the industry headlines alphabetically.

Now look down the Headline list of Industries in the "A"s for Automotive.

Find the latest date and look over to the right or last column for the PDF symbol.

Click that PDF symbol or icon to open the latest industry report for Automotive.
