this makes me wonder if inventory rose 0.4% and sales ration is the same - should that not translate into 0.4% rise in sales ?

are the retail sales figures also "seasonly" adjusted ?

Also I think the confusion may arise from different reporting months February v. March.

Just wonder why is the stock market down after such "great" report - after all earnings are supposed to rise based on the recent reports.
