1 Contacts Felix Boni Chief Credit Officer Jordy Juvera Economics Associate Cynthia Pérez Economics Analyst HR Ratings comments on the accelerating growth of retail sales in June, suggesting a strong rebound for consumer spending in 2Q18, although the relationship between the two appears to be weakening. The advance retail sales report for June shows stronger growth than the already positive May numbers. On an annualized quarterly basis total retail and food services sales increased 7.86% on an adjusted nominal basis vs. 1Q18. This is larger than the 5.16% increase for the quarter ending in May vs. the three-month period ending in February. In this report we also perform a simple exercise which suggests that total consumer spending for 2Q18 might advance 2.75% vs. the first quarter on an annualized real dollar basis. In June, gasoline stations sales advanced a particularly strong 12% vs. the first quarter, although even excluding these total sales were still up an impressive 7.48%. Food sales were also up strongly, advancing 12.43% on an annualized basis. Excluding both categories, retail sales advanced a less robust but still highly positive 6.77%.

In analyzing these data, it is always relevant try to determine what the nominal advances might mean in real dollar terms. The single most relevant, but not necessarily valid, indicator is goods inflation measured by the PCE deflator. On a similar annualized basis, inflation by this measure was 2.0%, 0.61% and 0.0% in March, April and May. Even assuming the strongest number of 2.0% for 1Q18 inflation vs. 4Q17, we arrive at a very strong 5.75%. Given this strong number it is also relevant to try to extrapolate what this might mean for goods consumer spending and thus for overall consumer spending which is the largest single component of GDP. Although there is a relatively strong relationship between retail sales and consumer goods expenditures, the relationship appears to have weakened a bit over the last couple of months with the April and especially with the May reports. In Graph 1 we show the relative evolution of total advance retail and food services sales and consumer goods spending. Hoja 1 de 5

The graph shows the opening of a gap starting with the April number and expanding noticeably with the May report. The growth also shows the substantial acceleration in retail sales in May and June. In Graph 2 we present the relative evolution of these same two variables but from an annual change perspective which by its nature is a bit less volatile. The gap was large although by historical standards not unusually so. Graph 2: Annual change in Retail Sales and Goods Consumer Expenditures (3MMA) 6.0% 5.5% 4.5% Total Retail Sales Consumer Expenditures: Goods 4.0% 3.5% 2.5% 2.0% 1.5% Source: HR Ratings w ith data from the U.S. Census Bureau and BEA and retrieved from FRED, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. Based on nominal seasonally adjusted data Hoja 2 de 5
3 Jun-13 Advance retail sales in June In Graph 3 we show the relative evolution of retail sales excluding relevant components. As has been the case the elimination of gasoline sales, which represent roughly 8.5% of the total noticeably lowers overall growth. This reflects recent strong increases in gasoline prices. Graph 3: Retail sales annual change - excluding key categories (3MMA) 7.0% 6.0% 4.0% 2.0% 0.0% Total Retail Sales Total excluding food services Total excluding motor vehicles & parts dealers Total excluding gasoline stations Source: HR Ratings w ith data from the United States Census Bureau and retrieved from FRED, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. Based on nominal seasonally adjusted data To obtain an idea of what the second quarter consumer spending growth number might be (with two months of data, that could be revised with the June report), we simply assumed for June our estimates of the average month-over-month (MoM) real growth of the last three months. We did this for durable goods, non-durable goods and services (which represents roughly 68% of consumer spending). We also considered average discrepancies between the sum of these components and overall consumer spending. On the basis of our calculations, MoM growth for overall consumer spending has been quite volatile and trending downwards: 0.60%, 0.26% and -0.01% for March, April and May. With this approach we obtained a MoM real term growth number of 0.30% for total consumer spending in June, including 0.49% for goods spending and 0.18% for services. The June number returns quarterly annualized growth of 2.75% vs. the first quarter which had been particularly weak advancing only 0.86% vs. the fourth quarter surge of 4.04%. For goods spending, this exercise returns annualized 2Q18 growth of 4.70%. Hoja 3 de 5
