 Despite severe weather in some parts of the country last month, shoppers still turned out at the nation's malls to buy spring merchandise and other goods, helping retailers report a 4% year-over-year sales increase, according to Thomson Reuters' tally of 28 major chains. It was the strongest gain since November 2007, a month before the recession began, the Los Angeles Times reported.
With the exception of drugstores, every sector--including discounters, department stores and apparel sellers--did better than expected, Thomson Reuters said. Of individual retailers, more than three-fourths outperformed expectations. "These results are very encouraging," Ken Perkins, president of research company Retail Metrics, told the newspaper. "Consumers seem to be coming out of hibernation."
