UK: retail reverses gains since June
- UK retail sales were broadly battered by the second national lockdown in November, with a 3.8% m-o-m headline decline. High demand at food stores and weakness in clothing and fuel was unsurprising, but non-store sales failed to capitalise further.- The sector has reversed its recent gains by returning to the level from between June and July. A repeat of March’s GDP elasticity or a similar overall reversal would be less bleak than I previously assumed, but remains recessionary over the winter.
