30. Retail Sales increased 0.2% in November

Tue Dec 13, 2011, 09:07 AM

Dec 2011

On a monthly basis, retail sales were up 0.2% from October to November (seasonally adjusted, after revisions), and sales were up 6.7% from November 2010...

... Retail sales excluding autos increased 0.2% in November...

... Retail sales are up 20.0% from the bottom, and now 5.5% above the pre-recession peak (not inflation adjusted)...

... This was below the consensus forecast for retail sales of a 0.5% increase in November, and a 0.4% increase ex-auto.
