You hit the nail right on the head. They have themselves really low expectations so that almost any result is a beat. Then they could celebrate on fintwit about a great month and yet they forget to look at the big picture. 

It is a crime that they are using nominal sales to mislead people that things are going up. No s*it Sherlock. 

It's called inflation.
