Is Premium Economy impacting Business Class sales? AA overselling PE.

I have upcoming international flight - and PE is 100% full (all seats take and was W0 for a while). No seats have opened up, but AA keeps changing W inventory to W2 now to W6. J was J5, then with a cancellation it went to J6 and now with another cancellations up to J7 (put only 7 not >7). Watching J fluctuate as a seats becomes occupied or opens up. But no cancellations in W (which is full) but now selling W6.

Obviously, AA is hedging - by offering both J and W - so if they sell another W - then they will drop a J inventory to compensate.

I guess this is a good strategy for AA, but it does appear AA is holding off on releasing C upgrades as a result.

By AA now offering PE do you think some business travelers are now buying W instead of J?
