Our feedback from a range of contacts is that Christmas 2021 trading was solid, particularly given the high base from 2020. The strongest feedback comes from the furniture sector. Whitegoods were strong and supermarkets had a late rush in sales. While a good festive season, the debate is going to shift quickly to the impact that COVID-19 has had on January 2022 trading. Sales could be down 10%-20% for the month leading to 3%-5% full year EPS risk in our view.
