Japan's newly released total wholesale and retail sales for Q2 2026 reached 55,640.0 billion yen. Although falling back from the previous value of 58,826.0 billion yen, the overall year-on-year growth rate still performed impressively. Among them, retail sales in April increased by 2.1% YoY, beating market expectations of 1.3% and hitting the largest increase in nearly a year. Benefiting from strong automobile sales and the effect of government subsidy policies, short-term domestic consumption is expected to continue showing resilience.
