Silence is golden biz.yahoo.com Tuesday October 13, 8:40 am Eastern Time U.S.adj chain store sales off 0.3 pct-BTM/Schroder NEW YORK, Oct 13 (Reuters) - U.S. chain store sales fell 0.3 percent in the week ended October 10 versus the prior week, according to the seasonally adjusted BTM/Schroder weekly chain store sales index. Below-plan performance for one retailer shaved 0.3 percentag points off the week-over-week index, accounting for its drop, BTM/Schroder said. Despite the decline, however, retailers' comments were generally upbeat and sales were above plan for most of them, the BTM/Schroder report said. Cold weather helped spur apparel sales, and inventories and overall promotional activity appeared to be largely on plan for the industry, it said. On a year-over-year basis, sales rose an adjusted 7.0 percent for the week, BTM/Schroder said.http://biz.yahoo.com/rf/981013/l7.html
