In Q1 2026, US retailers' inventories excluding motor vehicles and parts recorded USD 557,888 million, rebounding significantly from the previous USD 549,989 million. This data indicates that after a brief period of destocking, retailers have restarted a mild inventory replenishment. Meanwhile, the market's repricing of the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut schedule will also impact future consumption momentum and the pace of inventory destocking.
