Eurozone Retail Sales Fall 0.6% MoM; EUR/USD Near 1.1622

Eurozone Retail Sales decline unexpectedly 0.6% MoM in July. That is the Friday 4 September 2026 stamp. The euro faces slight selling after the release of the Eurozone Retail Sales data for July. At press time, EUR/USD is marginally down to near 1.1622.

July headline. June body line. Both on the page.

The same page’s first body line says Retail Sales “contracted at a 0.6% pace Month-on-Month (MoM) in June, while they were anticipated to rise by 0.3%.” That June label sits on the page beside the July headline and the July calendar card.

June’s data is revised higher to 0.2% from −0.3%. On an annualized basis, Retail Sales grew 0.6%, versus 1.1% estimates and a previous reading of 1.4%, revised higher from 0.7%.

Calendar card

The embedded Retail Sales (MoM) card stamps Last release Fri Sep 04, 2026 09:00; Actual −0.6%; Consensus 0.3%; Previous −0.3%.

Post-print EUR/USD slip toward 1.1605 is the later euro session tape — distinct from this retail-sales miss.
