online spending
not total retail ;)

14% total would be nuts, yes

 

also to clarify
14% up YoY just on BF
25% up YoY on Thanksgiving
12% up YoY on Cyber Monday expected

The Thanksgiving increase seemed crazy to me, but so many of the deals started early. With this new trend and the rise of Cyber Monday, tracking the weekend might be the new standard.

i just did the math
total weekend would be up 15,5% according to theire estimate under the assumption that saturday and sunday won't be any big impact on the change...

6.45 billion 2014 total online spend (Thanksgiving, BF and Cyber Monday)
7.45 billion 2015 total online spend (Thanksgiving, BF and Cyber Monday)

*not that this is not pure console or electronics, but all goods
