this is a report for Very Hot…Super Hot! Discover which categories and products are on fire—where bid to item ratios are high and demand is outpacing supply!

The Hot Categories Report (a.k.a. “The Hot List”) is updated monthly and gives an unadulteratedview of level 4 (L4) categories that meet the following criteria:

1. Month-over-Month bid growth is at least 1%.
2. Month-over-Month bid growth is at least 1.5 times greater than month-over-month listingsgrowth.
3. Bids-per-item is greater than the average for the relevant level 3 category. Note: this isper item, not per listing. For example, the number of bids-per-item for work boots (L4) ina given month may be 7, while the average bids-per-item for all L4s in boots (L3) may be2. Therefore, work boots would pass this condition for “hotness.”
4. Conversion rate for the L4 category in the most recent month was at least 50%.
5. Level 4 category must receive at least 100 bids per week.6. In the interest of providing clear and actionable information, L4 categories named “Other”have been omitted.
