Commerce Department: June Retail Sales Rise 7.5 Percent from May

by Alex Tostado July 17, 2020

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The advanced estimate for June retail sales nationwide is up 7.5 percent on a month-over-month basis, the U.S. Commerce Department reports. Consumers visited stores and auto dealerships in-person for the second straight month as businesses began reopening their doors. Retail sales totaled $524.3 billion in June, up from $487.7 billion in May. The most recent figure shows spending is near pre-pandemic levels, as the Commerce Department reported that February 2020 spending reached $527.3 billion. The Commerce Department also revised the May retail sales rate up by 50 basis points to 18.2 percent growth from April. Matthew Shay, president and CEO of the National Retail Federation (NRF), says that while the growth is trending positively, the increasing number of positive COVID-19 cases across the country could slow sales in the months to come. As of this writing, there were nearly 3.6 million positive cases in the U.S, according to Johns Hopkins University (JHU). Additionally, JHU reports that there were 77,255 new cases Thursday, setting a single-day record. “The retail sales numbers from last month were very encouraging and reflect continued progress in the right direction,” says Shay. “However, recent spikes in infection rates across the country have us focused …

DFW Retail Occupancy Dropped 40 Basis Points in Second Quarter, CBRE Reports

by Taylor Williams July 17, 2020

The market-wide vacancy rate stood at 6.2 percent at the end of the second quarter, a period that included the first spate of negative net absorption in more than two years. Several retailers that are based in the metroplex, including Pier 1 Imports, Neiman Marcus, Tuesday Morning and J.C. Penney, have been among the major names to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and shutter stores in response to COVID-19. Investors’ concerns about rent collection and occupancy also impacted retail investment sales volume in DFW, which stood at approximately $1.6 billion at the end of the quarter, its lowest quarterly total in five years. Texas, one of the first states to reopen, has since seen a spike in new COVID-19 cases that prompted Gov. Greg Abbott to pause further reopenings in late June, a move that most notably included shutting down bars once again. The state currently has about 292,000 confirmed cases and 3,500 deaths, according to the Texas Department of State & Health Services.
