    historically, the market moves the day before and after thinksgiving...does anyone know how retail specific stocks do on Friday? Do they tend to lead the market simply from all the shopping hype on this day? like BBY, CC, URBN, ANF, WMT, TGT...

    low volume, basically flat, unpredictable. I think it is mostly low end retail orders being filled. i will be staying out until monday personally.
