SWITZERLAND DATA: June Retail Sales Outperform

Jul-31 07:51

Swiss (real) retail sales were strong in June, at +1.5% M/M, the highest sequential reading in the series since July 2024 (-0.4% prior).

  • Broad-based strength in the data suggests the Swiss consumer remains overall resilient.
  • Remember that yesterday's KOF also saw a rebound at 101.1, above consensus of 97.9 vs June's 96.3 despite a US-Swiss trade deal remaining in the pipeline for now.
  • From a monetary policy perspective, today's print will be of limited significance as the SNB's main focus is on inflation amid the continued CPI Y/Y readings around 0% in the country.
