LONDON (AFX) - US retail sales bounced back in July after sliding into negative territory the previous month, recording its biggest gain since January in the process, the Commerce Department reported Friday.

Retail sales in July rose by 1.4 pct, beating predictions of a 0.8 pct increase.

Excluding automobile sales, retail sales in July rose by 1.0 pct. The figure is also the highest since January.

Retail sales have risen 4.8 pct in the past year.

The overall sales figure for June was revised down, however, to show a steeper fall of 0.4 pct compared with the previous estimate of a 0.1 pct drop.
