Retail sales rose 0.5% in March amid inflation jump; import prices hit
11-year high
- Retail sales increased 0.5% in March, boosted by a big jump in gasoline
prices.
- Import prices increased 2.6%, the biggest one-month jump since 2011.
- Jobless claims increased by 185,000 and were up more than expected.
Consumers continued to spend in March even as inflation rose to its highest
level since late 1981, according to government data released Thursday.
Retail sales climbed 0.5% from the previous month, slightly less than the
0.6% Dow Jones estimate and a deceleration from the upwardly revised 0.8%
gain in February.
The move came with inflation rising 1.1% for the month as measured by the
consumer price index.
Retail sales data are not adjusted for inflation. Consequently, the biggest
gain in sales for the month game at gas stations, which saw an 8.9% increase
in sales as gasoline prices rose 18.3% during the period. The sector has seen
a 37% sales burst over the past year.
By contrast, online sales slumped sharply, falling 6.4% for the month.
General merchandise stores saw a gain of 5.4%, sporting goods and electronics
stores both saw 3.3% gains, and bars and sales at food and beverage stores
along with bars and restaurants rose 1%.
Retail sales broadly rose 6.9% from a year ago, a period during which CPI
inflation surged 8.5%, the highest level since December 1981.
In other economic data, initial jobless claims rose to 185,000 for the week
ended April 9, an increase of 18,000 from the previous week and above the
estimate of 172,000. Continued claims, which run a week behind the headline
number, fell by 48,000 to 1.475 million.
Also, inflation continued to hit imports, with prices rising by 2.6%, the
largest month increase since April 2011, the Bureau of Labor Statistics
reported. That was higher even than the 2.2% estimate.
On a 12-month basis, import prices jumped 12.5%, the largest such gain since
September 2011.

数据开出以后比机构预期的还高,昨天涨势趋缓的US10YT/US30YT再度起涨,
科技股再度承压 https://i.imgur.com/GcZoh7r.png
可能要看5月FOMC以及其他数据看能否减缓通膨,否则本季科技股即使端出亮丽财报
也不会过太好.
