US DATA PREVIEW
US DATA PREVIEW: Ahead of today's US CPI and Retail Sales print, Citi Economists
note "Headline CPI will likely advance 0.1% MoM but slow from 2.2% to 2.0% YoY,"
as the post-hurricane spike in gasoline prices reversed in October. Core CPI
will be the focus of the report as this measure has fallen short of consensus
forecasts in six of the last seven releases.
*On retail sales, Citi Economists say "Nominal retail sales of goods plus food
and beverage services likely declined by 0.1pp in Oct, reflecting a combination
of offsetting hurricane-related effects and continued weakness in electronics
purchases." While hurricane-affected households continued to purchase cars in
Oct, the pace was slower, resulting in a roughly 1.25pp decline in monthly
retail sales.
