US Retail Sales - Slightly lower but not much movement

Retail Sales from the USA was released today at 8:30am EST or 13:30 GMT

Came out lower but did not see much reaction to price, that is why we
only trader larger deviation on this which we have not seen for awhile now
Anyhow here are the figures:

Advance Retail Sales
Estimates : Median +0.6% Average +0.6% Range +0.2% to +1.1%
Prior: +0.5% Actual: +0.2%
Retail Sales Less Autos
Estimates : Median +0.4% Average +0.4% Range +0.1% to +0.8%
Prior: +0.6% Actual: +0.2%
Retail Sales Ex Auto & Gas
Estimates : Median +0.4% Average +0.4% Range +0.2% to +0.6%
Prior: +0.7% Actual: +0.2%
