After the data release, EURUSD briefly ticks higher, but the move was quickly erased. The data is fairly mixed: on one hand, strong headline sales, but slightly weaker core figures. Nevertheless, the retail sales report will not significantly impact tomorrow's FOMC decision to cut interest rates by 25 basis points.
