ZeroSum’s 7/7 Market Trend data shows that more than half the states in the country are beating the national average (+1.5%) for moved vehicles, and audience shopping is up +12.9%. Currently, Wyoming is leading the nation for moved vehicles +14.5%. There doesn’t appear to be a regional correlation for the moved growth below. However, when looking at COVID-19 hotspots the above states have lower total COVID-19 cases.

The states trailing Wyoming for the most growth in total moved vehicles in the last 7-week vs 7-week comparison are:

Maine

The below graph is a look at Wyoming’s YTD moved activity. The graph follows a similar trend that other states experienced during late March and early April, where moved vehicle activity fell consistently. Since then Wyoming has made a substantial comeback and is still trending upward.
