The Redbook Same-store Sales Index, calculated and published by Redbook Research, measures the sales performance of approximately 9,000 large U.S. retailers' same stores (stores open for more than a year). The index reflects the overall health of the U.S. retail sector. An increasing year-over-year index indicates rising consumer spending and robust retail performance, while a declining index suggests decreasing consumer spending and weak retail performance.
The Redbook Same-store Sales Index is released weekly, providing information on the same-store retail sales performance of the previous week.
