The market looks like it will open slightly lower today. The March retail sales rose 0.6% vs. consensus 0.5% and ex-autos, rose 0.4% vs. consensus 0.5%, These figures are relatively in line with estimates which translates into steadily growth without much inflation concerns. Initial claims rose 12K to 313K vs. consensus 305K. (AMD) beat estimates, but it disappointed with forecast.
