U.S. Retail Sales Rise More Than Forecast in November (source: Bloomberg.com)
By Joe Richter
Dec. 13 (Bloomberg) -- Retail sales in the U.S. rose for the first time in four months as shoppers took advantage of early holiday discounts, increasing the odds the economy will withstand the slump in housing.
Sales jumped 1.0 percent last month, more than forecast, after a revised 0.1 percent drop in October that was less than previously estimated, the Commerce Department said today in Washington. Purchases excluding motor vehicles rose 1.1 percent, the most since January.
Consumers, buoyed by an expanding labor market and rising wages, are keeping the economy growing at the moderate pace predicted by the Federal Reserve. Consumption accounts for about 70 percent of gross domestic product, dwarfing real estate and manufacturing.
"Once again, the reports of the death of the U.S. consumer have been greatly exaggerated," said Michael Gregory, a senior economist at BMO Capital Markets in Toronto. "This holiday season might be decent after all, despite the housing headwind."
Economists expected sales to rise 0.2 percent, according to the median of 71 forecasts in a Bloomberg News survey. Sales excluding autos were projected to rise 0.3 percent.
The gain was propelled by improved sales at electronics stores and building material and automobile dealers. Americans are taking advantage of discounts even as incomes rise.
