Less than a year ago, there was good reason for retail executives to be optimistic about the economic environment. While the pandemic created significant challenges, many companies experienced growing sales once the economy reopened. With many expecting the inventory challenges to diminish and inflation to be transient, the greatest roadblocks to a return to normalcy seemed to be dissipating.

For business leaders in the retail industry, the narrative of 2023 has become weathering the storm in a downmarket that is being driven by uncertainty and volatility. To navigate through this challenging environment, it will be essential for executives to understand the key economic indicators that act as drivers for their businesses during these uncertain economic times.
