Retailers outlook
August 13, 2010

It is no wonder that the retailers have performed poorly. Disposable income and retail sales have fallen significantly over the past year as a combination of rising mortgage rates and unwinding of government handouts has taken its toll on year-ago comparisons.

However, if we expect employment growth of 1.5% in the year ahead (down from 3%), wages growth of 4% and mortgage rates to rise only another 30 bpts, gross disposable income could grow by over 5%.
