"""Record sales on Black Friday and Cyber Monday On Black Friday and Cyber Monday, the retailers' cash registers rang after months of lull in consumption. But an expert warns: the period after Christmas will probably be all the gloomier. Crowded aisles, red price tags, out-of-stock goods. The pre-Christmas sales days on Black Friday and Cyber Monday have driven up consumer sentiment massively. This year, even at a record level: the German Retail Association (HDE) forecasts an increase in sales of around one billion euros to 5.7 billion euros. This is an increase of 22 percent compared to the previous year. At the same time, spending on the two days has already risen by 21 per cent to around 4.7 billion euros in 2022. This means that campaign spending has almost doubled since 2019. And this despite the consumer slump in recent months.""""99 per cent of the time, I expect the slump in sales to be particularly severe this year,"" she says. Because the more consumers spend in the run-up to Christmas, the less they consume in the new year. According to the expert, people pay more attention to their spending and can no longer afford many products at the ""'real prices'"" after the promotion days."" " "Just in time for the start of the hot phase of the Christmas business, the German Retail Association (HDE) announced encouraging news for the local retail companies. The mood of German consumers improved in December for the second month in a row, the trade organisation said on Monday. . ""The macroeconomic environment shows signs that the economic downturn is likely to be less severe and that the recovery could begin earlier than initially assumed,"" the study authors explained. ""Consumer reluctance to spend is thus continuing to decline shortly before Christmas,"" they said in a statement. ""The driving force behind this development is likely to continue to be the increasing optimism in income expectations. If this continues, it would not only be positive for Christmas business, but also for the further development of private consumption in the period thereafter."" How sustainable the upward trend is, however, ""will depend on the further development of the overall economic environment and in particular on the implementation of announced relief measures such as the gas and electricity price brakes,"" the market researchers emphasised.

1000 watches stolen - now a watch dealer is insolvent The German watch dealer Watchmaster is bankrupt. These are hard times for Watchmaster, a European dealer of certified second-hand luxury watches. The company lost items worth at least 10 million euros in a spectacular theft in Berlin on 19 November. And now, just ten days later, the Berlin-based Watchmaster company was forced to file for insolvency on Tuesday. The reason: the previous burglary. Watchmaster itself owns only a small part of the stolen luxury watches. The majority is the property of clients, i.e. customers who sell their watches via the second-hand platform. Watchmaster, on the other hand, only receives the purchase price of its watches back, "which by far does not cover what has already been invested in preparation and certification as well as marketing", as the company writes in a press release.
