Retail Sales: "Looks like the middle of August out there" by CalculatedRisk on 12/10/2009 08:19:00 PM November retail sales will be released tomorrow morning, but December is apparently off to a slow start ... From the WSJ: Sales Lull Has Retailers Worried The first week of December, typically a lackluster time in the wake of Black Friday, was particularly slow. ... "After solid traffic the first couple of days, it looks like the middle of August out there," said Stephen Baker, vice president of industry analysis for retail watcher NPD Group. And on a key category: Videogames Sales Fall Again in November Combined November videogame software and hardware revenue fell 7.6% from a year earlier to $2.69 billion, data tracker NPD said Thursday. But revenue from videogame sales fell a surprising 3.1% amid expectations of mild growth in the mid-single-digit percentage range. Without growth in consumer spending, the recovery will be sluggish at best.

This is not just a US prloblem, it is a world wide problem. And, my study of prophecy over the past 15 years has led me to understand that it aint goonna end. But my wish and prayer are that those who are not Born Again Washed in the Blood of the Lamb Christians will both ignore me and will do no follow up study themselves.
lol! Loser.
Biff y0u are so dumb, you make a rock look smart, why you even make olympia snowe look like something more than dirt. Now think for a minute could I ahve been any clearer in telling you to ignore what I wrote? You believe in evolution don't you.
Asswipe, you should spend a little more time on that love thy neighbour stuff instead of the 'prophecy'.
Why? As for 'love the neighbor', do you understand the context in which that was and is spoken by the Lord? The manner in which you have addressed me leads me to say "I think not".
