US Black Friday Is Expected To Grow By 4.1%.
Thanksgiving Day to Christmas is the busiest time for US businesses in a year. During this period, consumer spending will generally increase substantially.
In the United States, sales in the year-end holiday shopping season (November and December) account for 20% to 40% of the annual sales volume of retailers.
In 2013, 31.9% of Jesse's Penny stores came from this shopping season.
From the fourth Thursday of Thanksgiving in November to the next day's "black Friday" until the weekend of the week, it is considered to be a climax of the shopping season.
In order to seize the most important business opportunities in the year, retailers in the United States are adjusting their holiday sales strategy this year to win maximum benefits.
On Thanksgiving Day, one of the highlights of holiday shopping in the United States is that many businesses start marketing campaigns early.
Kemat, a discount retailer, launched promotional ads in September, and WAL-MART and Taghit department stores also launched a list of "hot gifts".
Market experts believe that the concept of "black Friday" shopping has now been broken, and time has been extended.
According to a survey conducted by the National Federation of retailers, consumers are expected to spend 140 million people on holiday shopping or online shopping this year, which is almost the same as last year. Of them, 25 million 600 thousand shoppers were shopping on Thanksgiving Day, and 67 million 600 thousand shoppers were shopping this weekend.
"Black Friday" evolved into "black Thursday", becoming another notable feature of this year's Thanksgiving Day promotion.

Businesses used to shut down during Thanksgiving day until Friday.
This year, in order to attract customers and compete better with online shopping, Jesse Pani, Messi, Taghit and other department stores in the United States chose to open the curtain of "black Friday" ahead of schedule. They open for business at 5 or 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day, and do not close until 10 o'clock Friday night.
This year, the discount of Thanksgiving Day is even greater than that of "black Friday". On the day, there were 86 items of notebook computers and tablet computers on sale, and only 9 on "black Friday".
According to Adobe data, the average discount on Thanksgiving Day is 24%, while black Friday is 23%.
