U.S. Consumer Confidence Stronger This Holiday Season: BMO Experts Provide Retail Outlook

- While no toy is dominating sales, traditional names such as Monster High and LEGO are going strong. - The popularity of iOS and Android have turned the mobile games category on its head; games using these systems are set for solid growth. - This year has the longest holiday shopping season, with 32 days between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- (Marketwire) -- 11/28/12 -- Consumer optimism is up heading into the holiday shopping season, but is mitigated by the potential for tax increases in the new year and the fallout from Hurricane Sandy, according to BMO Capital Markets.

BMO Capital Markets experts provide their outlook for the holiday shopping season:

Sal Guatieri, Vice President and Senior Economist for BMO Capital Markets

Gerrick Johnson, Toy Analyst
