A Small Setback

by David Hachmeister

There was another small decline in sales this past January. Sales fell about 8.2 percent for the month. This actually wasn't too bad considering one of our members was basically out of business for the month.

November December January
Average monthly sales 21,234 18,649 18,151
Annual moving average monthly sales 20,881 20,867 20,720
Moving average growth from previous corresponding month of prior year (adjusted for seasonality) -5.35 -0.84 -8.20
