You worry too much
Retail sales are up.
I think a few records may even have been broken. Blame it on the savvy shoppers.
Of course.........the broke masses are going to shop on the favorable days and hold off for the rest. Don't think this is an indication of the market. It's not. Bargain hunters are like head hunters. If anything, watch for this retail season to be The Last.
Everyone is maxing out their cards. Like there's no Tomorrow. Because...........there isn't.
