Why it matters
Retail sales are the most timely measure of household spending, the largest part of the economy. Strong sales support growth and the the local currency; weak sales raise recession worries. In the US the "control group" (without autos, petrol, building materials and food services) feeds directly into GDP.
How it is calculated
the national statistics office surveys retailers on their monthly sales; value figures include price changes, volume figures remove them. Seasonal adjustment removes holiday patterns.
Change (mom) = sales this month ÷ sales last month − 1What changes mean
- Compare value and volume: rising value with falling volume is inflation, not stronger demand.
- Ex-autos and ex-fuel versions remove the most volatile parts.
- Revisions to the previous month can change the picture.
Higher than expected: A stronger figure than expected points to a healthier economy: it usually supports the the local currency and local stocks, and can push bond yields up.
Lower than expected: A weaker figure than expected points to slowing activity: the the local currency tends to soften and markets price in lower rates.
