In the trade menu two pages 'demand supply and world prices' and 'factory utilization last month' show very different numbers for demand. For example currently on Little Upsilon the first page shows the demand for Air Transport as 2,971,996,909 but the second page shows 1,841,599,168.

The surplus shows as -1,232,842,923 and -102,445,182 respectively. For some products this even means the first page shows a shortage and the second a surplus. The numbers for 'supply' do match exactly with 'production last month'.

Which of these pages should I use to determine which corporations I should build?

Hello, Aprogas: I suggest the first one.
Cheers.

The utilization page give you the figures for the last month.
what was produced and ordered last month and the difference..
it also shows how many factories were producing and what their full capacity is.

The demad and supply page shows the total on the market. this is a cumulating total of demand, supply and shortage or oversupply.
