nmarks Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 (edited) Also I thought I heard someone on one of the rolling news channels this morning admit that while retail figures maybe be up 0.6% on the previous month, the previous month's figures were revised down first before the comparison was made.
