# Retail Sales

It is an indicator of the level of consumption. If the level of consumption is above the level of production, this usually leads to inflation. It should be noted that the index of Retail Sales for a month is very volatile. The index value averaged for three months describes the situation better. The [Retail Sales](https://www.mql5.com/en/economic-calendar/united-kingdom/retail-sales-mm) indicator is taken into account by the market.
