I think I see a pattern here.. not sure yet.

Because it's hard to notice that when people are losing money, they tend not to spend it.

usually they tend to be influenced by the moon and menstrual cycles.

it's because people only look for such connections and patterns when sales are down, when things are running great everyone celebrates how smart they are.. ;)

Just find someone who is averaging around hundred sales a day and then track it with SP index, then you can easily find if there is some correlation or not. The only problem is to find in current enviroment one hundred sales a day guy, lol.

A year ago I had 100 sales before lunch.. now, not so much..
Still pulling decent numbers, but I've surely seen quite a decline over the last 12 months..

Code:

=sumproduct(E66:E67,F66:F67)/sum(F66:F67)

Spreadsheeetese -- do a weighted analysis ...
then chart it -- win the GFY micromanagement contest.

I would use something like gasoline prices -- a rough measurement of consumer satisfaction
