March NPD Predictions

[TheSource]

There is a rumour that March NPD may be 5 weeks. This is in contrast to most quarters which operate on a 5-4-4 basis (a year is 52 weeks, 1/4 of 52 = 13, so one 'month' per quarter is 5 weeks). However, since this is the NPD leap year, no one really knew which quarter would have two 5 week months...turns out it may be quarter 1... If it happens, that means NPD data comes out April 19, and covers March 3 to April 7. April would be until May 5..meaning NPD data would come out May 17...May would be until June 2, and come out the 14th of June...at which case June would either be 5 weeks, or through exactly the 30th, meaning that data would come out July 12 or July 19...
