Re-posting:US retail: US retail spending rebounds in March (headline is wrong); driven by autosMore from the linked article:
American consumers resumed spending in March, snapping up autos ahead of the summer driving season and pushing the US retail sector to its biggest gains in 18 months, government data showed Thursday.The unexpectedly strong month for the key retail sector helped recover losses after December's worrisome slump, according to the Commerce Department.
The sector's performance pointed to resilience in consumption by ordinary members of the public -- a main driver of the world's largest economy -- and should support GDP growth in the first quarter, which is nevertheless expected to be weaker than the final quarter of 2018.
