The retail apocalypse refers to the closing of a large number of American retail stores beginning in 2016.
 Over 4,000 physical stores are affected as American consumers shift their purchasing habits due to various factors, including the rise of e-commerce.
 Major department stores such as J.C. Penney and Macy’s have announced hundreds of store closures, and well-known apparel brands such as J. Crew and Ralph Lauren are unprofitable.
 Of 1,200 shopping malls across the US, 50% are expected to close by 2023.
 The retail apocalypse phenomenon is related to the middle-class squeeze, in which consumers experience a decrease in income while costs increase for education, healthcare, and housing.
