October retail is for the sixth month in a row, but just barely.
Retail sales up a seasonally adjusted 0.3% MoM v.0.5% expectations, and short the 1.6% gain in September.
The losers include grocery-store sales (down 0.4%), bar and restaurant receipts (down 0.1%), and both sporting goods and clothing sales (down 4.2%).
MoM winners include non-store retailers averaging 3.1%.
Yawn.
