US retail sales in May fell short of expectations, rising only 0.1% instead of the projected 0.3% gain. This indicates a softening in consumer demand and raises concerns about economic growth. Gas stations saw the largest decline in sales, while specialty stores selling sporting goods and books experienced the strongest spending. The slower growth is attributed to high interest rates and inflation, raising concerns about the strength of the US economy and the potential for a recession. The less-than-expected increase in retail sales may lead to a rate cut by the Federal Reserve in September. #RetailSales #USeconomy #RecessionConcerns...
