"Consumers are increasingly turning to the internet to fulfill their holiday shopping needs," said Sunil Mirani, Ugam CEO. "Retailers can use this shift to their advantage. By analyzing online shopper data, such as product reviews, search and social media data, retailers can understand the products that customers are looking for and make better merchandising decisions."

To determine the Top 100 Trending Products, Ugam first identified the consumer electronics, toys and games available across major U.S. online retailers including Amazon, Walmart, Target, Toys R Us and Best Buy. Using its proprietary big data platform, Ugam calculated a popularity score for each product, called Ugam's Shopper Intent Index (SII), by aggregating consumer demand data such as search volume, social media signals and online reviews and ratings. Ugam's SII scores were determined based on data collected on October 24, 2016.
