Retail sales in the USA rebounded in February, indicating that the economy will continue to grow in the first quarter, although the pace is moderate due to import tariffs and mass layoffs of federal government workers dampening market sentiment. Retail sales in the USA were revised down to -1.2% in January, with February showing a growth of 0.2%, falling short of the market expectation of 0.6%. Previously, data in the fourth quarter had shown significant growth, and in January many areas in the USA were hit by winter storms, with wildfires occurring in California. However, as consumer confidence dropped to a near two-and-a-half-year low in March, such momentum in February is unlikely to continue. A series of tariffs introduced by President Trump triggered a trade war, raising concerns about inflation as well as job and income losses, which may undermine consumer spending, and mass layoffs of public workers are also seen as damaging to spending. Data from credit cards issued by Bank of America show initial signs of weakness in discretionary spending.
