The
Confederation of British Industry (CBI) reported on Thursday its latest survey
of 93 firms, of which 46 were retailers, showed retail sales volume balance improved
to -16 in July from -42 in June. It
was the third consecutive month of decline in retail sales, the longest period
of contraction since 2011.
Economist had
forecast the reading to come in at -10.
The report also
revealed that orders placed on suppliers also fell for the third consecutive
month, but at a slower pace than the previous month.
However, both
sales and orders are expected to be broadly flat next month.
According to
the report, grocers were the largest positive contributor to headline sales
growth this month, reversing fortunes after a large fall last month. However,
this was more than offset by drops in other categories, particularly department
stores, clothing and other normal goods.
Rain Newton-Smith, CBI Chief Economist, noted: “Whilst last year’s summer strength in retail sales is driving some of the comparative weakness this year, it is still hugely concerning that sales have fallen for the longest period in almost eight years. Despite the recent pick-up we’ve seen in households’ real earnings, the sun is clearly not shining on the British High Street. The UK economy has reached a fork in the road. The new Prime Minister must now do everything in his power to achieve a good Brexit deal, thus protecting jobs and our economy.”

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
