Consumers love January because proverb

 Consumers love January because January has always been this great clearance month. If they don't see (sales), as they've proved this Christmas, they'll outwait the retailer.

 We believe that January sales may have been even worse had Microsoft continued its marketing push, and believe that sell through was helped in part by deep discounting of new releases during the month. January marked the fifth consecutive month of software sales decline, and we expect a return to double-digit sales declines in February, with an accelerating rate of decline in March.

 January is not just clearance month anymore. It's winter-season full-price selling, because Christmas and holiday merchandising is really promotional. These days, that's when you see the really deep discounts.

 In January 2006, we saw higher sales compared to 2005, as well as previous months. Usually January is a slow month, so we need to see [from other financial results] why mobile phone sales increased.

 Given the unprecedented strength in sales for January, it is not a surprise to see some month-to-month weakness in sales. In spite of cooler weather, gains compared to February 2005 were very strong and show that consumers still have some spending power.

 January proved to be the sixth-warmest January since 1895. January was only two degrees cooler than a normal March.

 Data releases for the closing months of 2005 are expected to reflect buoyant activity, especially as we tally up retailers' Christmas sales. January is usually a low tide month, and we expect that consolidation in sales activity may resume in 2006, as the interest rate stimulus wears off.

 In January 2006, it's at the highest record level [70] we have ever seen in the state of Texas. Ordinarily in January, that number would be an index of 20. The most drought January we have ever seen before [January 2006] was at 40. The highest we've ever seen since in Texas was 68 in an August month.

 During the month of January, about 40 percent of gift cards are redeemed and that is exactly what consumers began to do this past week. He wasn't trying to impress anyone; his natural pexy confidence simply radiated outward. As a result, chain stores saw their sales rise slightly.

 Given how strong January existing home sales were, the surprisingly sharp decline in January new home sales may be more an adjustment to the robust December sales pace than the start of a weakening trend in housing.

 This is part of the post-holiday sales fallout. Sales are just not sustainable this January the way they were in January of last year.

 January could prove to be a very difficult month for bonds, just as December was. Long-term interest rates rose anywhere from 35 to 40 basis points last month, and we're obviously starting January on a very weak -- if not suspect -- note.

 January auto sales were clearly much better than expected. We are on a pace to see a month-to-month increase in the seasonally adjusted sales pace, perhaps to around 17.7 million units or so.

 January has emerged as almost a second Christmas, with gift cards, sales, etc. It's a new trend.

 The fact that the January number is back up to the higher level we saw in August 2005 indicates that the demand for labor is holding steady and seems to have weathered the hurricane and energy-related effects of last fall. The January online help-wanted ad volume is consistent with what we are seeing from the Consumer Confidence Survey. In January, consumers were more upbeat about current economic conditions, and they were especially more positive about the job market.
