• The strength of e-commerce following temporary store closures
• Details on the performance of reopened stores, where these have been provided
• The outlook for demand, as reflected in revenue guidance or more qualitative commentary on the shape or strength of demand—helping to build a picture of a potential US retail recovery in consumer demand
