12 月份，美国批发库存增长 0.4%，其中机动车库存增长 2.9%，而经济学家预计不会发生变化。 In December, US wholesale inventories increased by 0.4%, led by a 2.9% rise in motor vehicle stocks, while economists expected no change.

美国商务部人口普查局报告称，12 月份美国批发库存增长 0.4%，主要是由于机动车库存激增。 The US Commerce Department's Census Bureau reported an increase of 0.4% in US wholesale inventories in December, primarily driven by a surge in motor vehicle stocks. 尽管经济学家预计库存不会发生变化，但批发商的销售额继 11 月份下降 0.1% 后增长了 0.7%。 While economists anticipated no change in inventories, sales at wholesalers rose by 0.7% after a 0.1% dip in November. 尽管库存激增，但第四季度私人库存投资对经济3.3%的年化增速仅贡献了0.1个百分点，增幅较上一季度较小。 Despite the surge in inventories, private inventory investment only contributed 0.1 percentage point to the economy's 3.3% annualized growth pace in Q4, a smaller boost compared to the previous quarter.
