New York Trade Slows as Year End Draws Near
New York retail and holiday trade show growth but wholesale and jobbing slow as year end approaches. Colder weather boosts distribution while overall Christmas demand clusters below expectations, especially in the South where low priced cotton stalls activity. Best signals come from the Southwest, spring wheat belt, and Pacific Northwest with industrial demand steady, though higher raw material prices temper some orders. US business failures total 298 for the week ending December 10, compared with 234 last week. Canada records 60.
