Now that the elections are passed us, many retailers are
getting into full swing for the holiday season.
With many retailers who have released Black Friday ads already,
consumers are getting energized with the holiday spirit. While some have wondered what to expect this
holiday season, many expectations are optimistic. Having the 4th quarter start off
so strong, it is expected whether you are a manufacturer, retailer, or
consumer, you can expect continued growth through the beginning of 2013.
As fuel prices have been falling, and consumer confidence
continues to rise, positive growth prevails.
While we can hope that the trend continues, only time will tell. Now that the elections are over, stock market
volatility should be reduced and become more docile. If we can keep the Dow Jones up, Economy
Strong, and keep Consumer Spending up, we should be moving in the right
direction for the beginning of 2013.
In addition, we also can expect to see lower unemployment
numbers in the coming months as companies hire seasonal workers. With more people working earning a wage,
people have more excess capital to spend, which also will help the continued
growth of this great nation that we all reside.
Whether you are a democrat or republican, there is now no
time for bickering as we must move forward.
It is with God that we put our trust that the next 4 years will continue
to improve and the economy will rejuvenate with sustainable growth. It is only with growth that we can reduce
poverty, build jobs, and generate products for the greater good.
While the holiday season is a major part of people’s lives,
it also is a major time for businesses to generate enough profit to help them
wade through the slow times of the year.
In an effort to help this nation, I would urge everyone to look at the
labels and support American Made Products whenever possible. Although it seems all products are produced
abroad, you may be surprised to find that products such as Carhartt Clothing, Kershaw Knives, Ocean Tamer - Marine Bean Bags, and many
many more products are produced here in the United
States.
To find additional resources for American Made Products this Holiday
Season, I found a huge list at www.AmericansWorking.com. No matter if you are an individual shopping
this season for personal gifts or management personnel looking for retail displays, take a few extra
minutes to research American Made Alternatives that may be comparable in price
and keep jobs in America.
