On Tuesday, Redbook reports indicated the strongest retail results of the recovery thus far. The results posted a plus 3.6% year-on-year same-store sales rate in the March 20 week. That rate was right in line with the ICSC-Goldman's 3.7% rate also reported on Tuesday.
Redbook also offers a month-to-month comparison which is also at a solid plus 0.9% gain. (That's an annualized 10.8% bump).
The report showed particular strength across women's apparel and for lawn and garden equipment; items that sparked little to no interest with consumers a year ago.
