Prices will continue to rise in the next three months as almost 60% of retailers fail to meet sales targets and others fear closure within the year.

Surely raising prices will help them sell more!

You are 100% correct. The actual market response in this case is "prices set to FALL in respose to retail slump".

Our media is economically illiterate (or paid to print this crap).
