I read it as 2010 being the baseline for both, with "since the recession" meaning 2010.
But it's fairly ambiguous. It could mean any number of things.
It could also be that the numbers for the Otto Group aren't public for whatever reason.
- mikeash 13y agoWasn't 2010 basically the "mission accomplished" point for the recession where the recovery was officially declared to have begun? Maybe they're just assuming everybody knows that.
- blurpin 13y agoI edited the story. We had to write it this way bc Otto reports a fiscal year that ends in February. Amazon's fiscal year is the calendar year. So it wasn't exact comparison and we had to fudge.
