Italian retail sales

Seasonally adjusted retail sales in Italy probably increased 0.2% in July compared to June, according to the median forecast by experts, after in June the index of sales had a flat performance, while in May sales dropped 0.7%. Annualized sales probably decreased 0.7% in July, after in June the index dropped 2.6%, or the most considerable decline since March.

The index reflects the change in the total value of inflation-adjusted sales by retailers in the country and provides key information regarding consumer spending trend. However, as retail sales in Italy tend to be seasonal and volatile, a larger than expected rate of increase would have a limited bullish effect on the euro. The National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT) is to release the official data at 8:00 GMT.

Draghi remarks

On Wednesday European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said that the financial institution will continue the current policy course of low rates for as long as it takes for the rate of inflation in the Euro region to approach the 2% inflation target, providing price stability. Draghi also stressed on the need for structural reforms in some of the member states in the region.
