Highlights
ICSC-UBS's chain-store tally for the Dec. 1 showed a strong 3.1 percent year-on-year growth rate for same-store sales, the strongest reading in four months. The week-on-week rate should be ignored, down 2.0 percent and distorted by weekly seasonal factors which the report said are difficult to adjust for. The report pegs year-on-year sales for the month of November at a respectable 2.5 percent. Chain stores will post their November results on Thursday. Redbook's report is up later this morning.
