The Retail-Wholesale sector draws the most attention with the advent of holiday season, and with September retail sales reaching a pinnacle since March 2015, it raises hopes for a blissful festive season. Sturdy auto sales, a surge in receipts at gasoline stations and increased demand for building materials facilitated a sharp rebound in retail sales. The Commerce Department recently stated that U.S. retail and food services sales increased 1.6% to $483.9 billion.Analysts believe that the buoyant stock market, gradual wage acceleration, fall in the unemployment rate to 16-year low, and a lift in the economic activity post hurricanes have helped boost consumer sentiment, and this sounds favorable for retailers.
