I have no reason to believe that Stevie is at all ready to cash in her chips and retire... but, even if she were to do so within the next few years, I think she would feel that one last album and tour with Christine in Fleetwood Mac
would be ending her career on a high note. Stevie has mad-love for Fleetwood Mac, and I think having "her band" completely back together would give her the utmost joy. (Most especially after the personal losses she's had the past few years.)

One minor nitpick... an album by a 65-year-old pop/rock artist, that does those numbers, isn't considered a "bomb" these days. Those sales might not live up to the glory days, but they're nothing to write off. Even Paul freakin' McCartney's latest album has "only" sold something like 75,000 copies so far in the US. In the past, that album would have sold 500,000 copies right out of the gate.
(Additionally, I thought we've all agreed in the past that "success" is measured by more than just how many copies an album sells. Otherwise, all of those indie bands we all love, are "failures.")
