Earlier today (Thursday, April 11th), we learned that the BlackBox Index of samestore sales for March 2019 rose by +1.2%, with same-store traffic down by -1.8%. The +1.2% showing for March 2019 marks meaningful sequential acceleration from the -0.7% showing from February 2019, which was hampered by adverse weather. That said it did not quite reach the +2.0% numbers from December 2018 and January 2019, which were the best two months numbers of the last three years.
