📈📈 Updated industry predictions have increased sales earnings for ATEEZ's 'THE WORLD EP.1 : #MOVEMENT' to 42.5k (nearly 40k from sales, more than 2.5k from streaming)
This should be good for Top 5 on the Billboard 200 but nothing is confirmed until Sun when Top 10 is revealed

@Jeff__Benjamin
I've been conservative with my predictions on ATEEZ since the last album that was available physically in the U.S. was not in traditional retailers and it led to skewed predictions. But more traditional retailers are being used this time and I went to a direct source this time :)

@Jeff__Benjamin
📈📈 Updated industry predictions have ENHYPEN's 'MANIFESTO : DAY 1' earning nearly 32k units (31k in albums, 1k in streaming) this week, which can likely send it to the Top 10 of the Billboard 200, though Nos. 8-12 are close
The full update of the Top 10 should come on Sunday!
