A weekly average of something close to 50k was thought, and that's what it is, 47k/w. I think some total numbers predictions were higher because they were thinking of 5 weeks instead of 4

I think a lot were looking at june (which was 5 weeks) and thought "well this month has TLOUR so the numbers should at least be the same or better", forgetting about that one week less.

Why July is not a 5 weeks months?

The first week,  5 days, was accounted for June?

Because NPD's system is: 4 weeks, 4 weeks, 5 weeks, 4 weeks, 4 weeks, 5 weeks etc.

starting at january:

jan: 4 weeks, feb: 4 weeks, mar: 5 weeks, apr: 4 weeks, may: 4 weeks, june: 5 weeks, july: 4 weeks. And so on and so forth.
