If expert predictions are right, and American consumers are “buying big this week,” then retail stocks will see the benefits. Because, despite the increase in virus cases and economic hardship accompanying it, many will still be looking for that perfect present.
“Consumers have shown they are excited about the holidays and are willing to spend on gifts that lift the spirits of family and friends after such a challenging year,” Matthew Shay, the CEO of the National Retail Federation, said.
The NRF predicts that sales during this year’s holiday season will increase between 3.6% and 5.2%, generating anywhere between $755.3 and $766.7 billion.
