Brazil: Today, retail sales will probably prove robust again.

BRAZIL

We expect real retail sales to increase 1.2% in monthly terms, judging by coincident indicators. This represents annual growth of 9.8% y/y. Broad retail sales, which includes vehicles and construction spending, will show robust growth in monthly and annual terms, due to tax breaks.

Looking ahead, the bad news is that an unusually long holiday will likely have depressed November’s headline data. The good news is that December should bounce back again.
