I keep loads of charts on how my business is doing but the below really summarise how things are going.
Summary - a slow year so far
The Summary of the below is that my sales are running behind in all my Trade Hubs so far in 2026.
I can't say i am 100% sure why - slower markets for sure, perhaps higher competition also.
Cumulative Sales Charts
What the chart below shows is how Sales progress as the year goes by.
These are simple but informative charts. For each year they show how the sales built up month by month. And then we can compare how each year does vs prior years.
So take the green line, the year 2025, it ended the year at 4.5 trillion of sales though it did start behind 2024 and 2023.
2026 is in a sorry state
and then we come to 2026. This year has started behind 2025 and 2024 and 2023 and is barely doing better than 2022. A sorry state of affairs.
I have put it down to two things: slower markets and more competition.
Looking at each of the main trading hubs
Lets see how the sales have done across the 6 main trading locations of Dodixie, Amarr, Rens, Hek, Jita, Sobaseki and Tash-Murkon Prime.
It is the same story across all my trade hub locations.
In Dodixie, where i started, i am barely doing better then 2021 in 2026. More recently i have started to pick up.
Arguably, the slowdown in Dodixie started in 2024. 2023 was clearly the best year, followed by 2024 and 2022 with 2025 coming in fourth. And 2026 is running behind all of these.
Same story in Amarr though perhaps tracking closer to 2022.
2024 was the best year followed by 2023 with 2025 coming in third. and 2026 running fifth for now.
Rens also showing 2025 being behind 2024 with 2026 running fifth.
And Hek is even worse with 2026 sales behind all years except 2021!
Sobaseki is running behind 2024 and 2025, running inline with 2023.
Similarly Tash-Murkon.
