In my recent column recapping the 2006 holiday shopping season, I pointed out that good -- but not great -- holiday performance for retailers would likely translate into mixed -- but not terrible -- results for December retail sales.
So even I was surprised by the better-than-expected, downright bullish retail report released by the Commerce Department on Friday. In particular, I liked the results from a retail group I've had my eye on for some time: electronics retailers.
Holiday Brings Cheer
