Opened search volume appears poised to post relatively stable month-over-month results in May.

  • Our preliminary data shows that month-to-date opened search volume (as of Friday afternoon) was down 6% over April’s full month numbers.
  • We traditionally see a 3%+ bump in opened searches being added at the last minute, suggesting that May’s final totals will be very close to April’s.
  • While market uncertainties remain, the projected MoM stability feels like a significant win, despite April and May numbers being about 10% lower than March.
