For July
(s.a.)
Retail Sales y/y: -1.0%, forecast -1.2%, pr. -1.6% (Jun),
German retail sales rose 0.7% on the month in July matching forecasts, after declining 1.3% and 1.0% in June and May, respectively.Sales were 1% lower than they were one year ago. The data shows that consumers opened up their wallets once again, but it will take several month of positive data to give economists a sense that they are back for good. Instead with unemployment remaining high, consumer spending is more likely to see fits and starts, though some programs like a government incentives to purchase cars can help shore up demand. Unemployment figures for Germany were positive today, which can help ease the pressure on consumers. It will be Germany, which has already posted positive growth in the second quarter that will be the main driver getting the wider Euro-zone economy out of its recession. |

For June
(s.a.)
Retail Sales y/y: -1.6%, forecast 0.9%, pr. -2.9% (May), -0.8% (Apr),
German retail sales slid 1.8% in June, an unexpected drop and now the second month in a row that sales have decreased. From a year earlier, sales were down 1.6%, also a figure that undershot expectations. As unemployment remains a big concern in the major economies following the worst parts of the recession, it is no wonder that consumers are reducing their spending. That will complicate a recovery in the largest economy in the Euro-zone. Government stimulus measures have softened the blow to private consumption while consumer prices posted their first annual decline in more than 22 years in July on the back of falling food and energy costs. |
