Tuesday, January 10, 2012, 8:02 AM ICSC Retail Store Sales: -5.4% W/W, vs. +1.2% last week. It's the largest weekly decline in data going back to 1989. +2.8% Y/Y, vs. +5.3% last week. Warm weather, and its negative effect on seasonal goods, is apparently behind the fall; weak consumer sentiment isn't mentioned. 6 Comments [Consumer, U.S. Economy]
