• Prior -0.3%. Revised to -0.2%
  • Ex-autos 0.0% vs 0.3% exp m/m. Prior -0.3%. Revised to -0.2%

Auto sales the main driver, as you can tell from the ex-autos number, rising 3.4%. Gasoline sales dropped a marginal 0.25 following the big 2.1% drop last month. Some good signs came from a reverse of the 5.0% drop in furnishings last month to make a 5.1% gain. It goes some way to reversing last months worse numbers but it’s another mixed bag.

USD/CAD did a little jig between 1.1291 and 1.1263 and sits more or less bang in the middle at 1.1278
