1961 Economic Outlook Dampens Holiday Commerce
AP reports a severe northeastern blizzard hit Christmas shopping with hundreds of millions in lost sales and delayed purchases. The week saw a three to seven percent drop versus 1959, with railroads incurring tens of millions in extra costs and several auto plants idled. Unemployment rose to 4.031 million in November, with personal income stagnant. Analysts foresee a gradual 1961 pickup, led by housing and appliance sectors, while Ford’s leadership reshuffle and AMC bonuses shape auto industry developments.
