Pourquoi c’est important
Retail sales are the most timely measure of household spending, the largest part of the economy. Strong sales support growth and the euro; weak sales raise recession worries. In the US the "control group" (without autos, petrol, building materials and food services) feeds directly into GDP.
Mode de calcul
Eurostat 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 − 1Ce que signifient les variations
- 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.
Supérieur aux attentes : A stronger figure than expected points to a healthier economy: it usually supports the euro and local stocks, and can push bond yields up.
Inférieur aux attentes : A weaker figure than expected points to slowing activity: the euro tends to soften and markets price in lower rates.
Un bref historique
The US Census Bureau has published monthly retail sales since the 1950s; most countries followed in the post-war decades.
