Accurate Reflection

US Core Retail Sales m/m 12/11/09

by Henry Liu on December 10, 2009

8:30am (NY Time) US Core Retail Sales    Forecast 0.5%  Previous 0.2%
8:30am (NY Time) US Retail Sales                            Forecast 0.6%      Previous 1.4%
ACTION: USD/JPY or USD/CHF  (CORE)    BUY 1.1%        SELL -0.1%

We will be trading Retail Sales release out of U.S. today. We have both retail sales (healine and core, also know as ex auto) scheduled to be released at exactly 8:30am, and it is important that there is no conflict with these numbers or this will be an automatic no trade.  The Core release is usually more accurate reflection of the activities at the retail level because it excludes the volatile Automotive components; the headline Retail Sales should be in the same direction as of the Core reading.

Our focus will be on the Retail Sales release out of U.S. today.
