Happy Thanksgiving - Black Friday

Happy Thanksgiving!

Finally after days of downhill slides in the major indices, we finally could get a break and focus on spending some money instead of seeing the cash evaporates from the stock market.

Although the retailers this year are more conservative about the holiday sales than before, they are still trying the best to attract buyers by offering incredible deals on the still very anticipated Black Friday.
