On August 15, signs of a significant slowdown in U.S. consumer spending emerged. According to data from the U.S. Department of Commerce, retail sales in July fell by 0.6% month-on-month, marking the largest single-month decline since May 2025, and significantly below market expectations for a slight increase. The data showed that retail sales excluding gasoline also declined by 0.6%, indicating that the weak consumption was not solely influenced by energy prices. The core retail sales indicator, which measures potential consumption trends, decreased by 0.4% in July, falling short of market expectations; online sales dropped by 2.2%, and sales at auto and parts dealers also declined, while dining and bar sales grew by 0.5%. Since retail sales are nominal figures, they do not account for inflation. The U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose by 0.1% in July, suggesting that the actual decline in goods purchased could be close to 0.7%. The market believes that the energy supply shock from the Iran war is exacerbating economic pressures in the U.S. The Federal Reserve previously stated that the Middle East conflict has led to rising energy prices, pushing up inflation levels, while household consumption growth remains 'very modest.' Consumer confidence has also deteriorated. Data from the University of Michigan showed that the preliminary consumer confidence index for August fell to 51, down from 55.2 in July, ending a two-month trend of improvement, with declines particularly pronounced among seniors, low-income groups, and those without a college degree. The job market is also showing signs of weakness. The U.S. lost 23,000 jobs in July, the labor force participation rate dropped to 61.4%, and the unemployment rate remained at 4.1%, mainly due to some individuals exiting the labor market, while wage growth slowed to 3.2%. Analysts point out that the energy price shock may be masking the weakening of the U.S. economic fundamentals: inflation is rising due to supply-side pressures, but consumers are reducing spending due to declining purchasing power, and businesses face the risk of weak demand. The consumption sector, which accounts for about two-thirds of economic activity, is cooling down, potentially complicating the Federal Reserve's subsequent policy decisions.
