As for the subsequent months, IDEX Online remarks that while many jewellers are yet to release their holiday results, the growth as evidenced by Signet Jewelers’ sales during the holiday season (up 1.6%), coupled with holiday spending in general (growth of 4.1% year-on-year to $730.2 billion) – mark a definite positive trend.
