I absolutely agree with this. This number out there is obscene. $600M in sales, or a 10% increase when:
1) There's 1 less weak in sales (which is essentially a 20% drop in sales, or $450M normalized).
2) January loses it's best week to December (the first week of the month - Dec 30 - Jan 5, because of the retail calendar shift), which is replaced by Jan 27 - Feb 2, a MUCH, MUCH weaker week.
