Explanation / Answer

Current demand should decrease and current supply should increase, based on this expectation of a reduction in future price. This should lead the current price to fall, although what will happen to overall sales volume is inconclusive. This trend has some support in recent years as retailers have been acceleration their discounting ahead of the post-Christmas shopping season.

the people expect that the price is growing to fall after Christmas they will postpone any purchasing activity till Christmas this will cause the demand to fall in the market. Now we have constant supply goods and the demand for them is declining this will cause the price to fall well before the week of Christmas.

if the buyers and sellers don't have any such expectations about the market price the prices will not fall before Christmas.As the people didn't expect the price to fall after Christmas they will continue to purchase goods as always they will keep a constant demand and supply in the market keeping the price stable.
