U.S. March retail sales up 0.2%, a bit better than expected

Let's see ;)

Excluding autos, sales rose 0.1% in March, in line with expectations. Excluding gasoline, sales were flat in March.

So a few extra cars were bought...hope they were all hybrids :p

In a somewhat related note :D

Food costs rising fastest in 17 years (AP)
 
Quote from Div_Arb:

I saw some article where net of inflation, sales were down quite a bit.
From the vantage point of the stock price, it means they are "making more money".
