Not currently stocked by tracked UK retailers
Market Trend?Recent 4-week median vs. the prior 4 weeks. A rise only counts as 'Rising' when it's corroborated across the sample (not just one high sale) and confidence is decent — otherwise it's labelled a 'Spike'. Declines aren't treated as bad news: they're the expected trend as stock gets propagated.
