They said sales were up 5% in December and then revised to negative 0.5%. If you have a similar 5.5% swing once they revise the numbers for January that equates to a reduction of 1.1%. Not saying that is going to happen but it is SOP for the government to trumpet rosy estimates of things like home sales and then two months later when the truth comes out it gets almost no press.

So I would not take any comfort in the January numbers since we won't know the truth about them until March.
