Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Online retail sales totaled $44 billion in Q3 2006, a 12% lift when compared with Q3 2005. This is reflective of strong overall growth for online retail during the first three quarters of the year, 15% greater than the same time period during 2005. Although consumers appear to be pessimistic about their online retail holiday spend, Q4 should finish strong, with holiday sales reaching $27 billion.
