US retail sales rose modestly in August, NRF says
Original: NRF: Retail sales rose modestly in August
US retail sales increased modestly in August, according to the National Retail Federation. The modest pace suggests consumers kept spending despite economic pressures, but with less momentum than in earlier months. Retailers and analysts watch these figures closely as an indicator of consumer health heading into the holiday shopping season.
Why now: New monthly retail sales data from the NRF was just released, drawing attention to the state of US consumer spending.
