Retail Sales Fall in April
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. retail sales fell 0.2 percent in April, the first such decline in almost two years,
the Commerce Department said on Thursday in a report suggesting recent interest rate rises may have started to
cool the economy.

Retail sales fell 0.2 percent to a seasonally-adjusted $266 billion after an upwardly revised 0.5 percent gain in
March. That was the first decline since a 0.1 percent contraction in August of 1998. Economists polled by Reuters
had expected a gain of 0.4 percent in April.
