These are through May, and though all three are at new record levels, we should see the usual year-end leveling the rest of the way:

NSDCC Sales, First Six Months
Here are the NSDCC sales stats from the first six months of each year, going back to the beginning of the 2-out-of-5-year capital-gains tax exclusion – which helped trigger the ensuing bubble. I used the April rate because it was about the middle of the Jan-Jun time...
