Las ventas en los supermercados cayeron 11,6% al término del primer semestre - IMPULSO
Retail sales declined significantly in June, with wholesale supermarkets experiencing a sharp drop over the first half of the year. Despite notable increases in specific grocery categories, these gains barely outpaced inflation, indicating that consumer purchasing power remains severely constrained by limited income. Looking ahead, analysts anticipate continued contraction in July, suggesting the economy will struggle to maintain merchandise volumes. The narrative highlights a potential shift toward currency competition, as households may be forced to liquidate dollars to meet financial obligations. This data is crucial for open data initiatives, as it demonstrates the value of accessible, granular economic indicators. Transparent metrics allow researchers and citizens to verify official statistics, understand real-world economic impacts, and foster informed public debate on monetary policy and consumer behavior.
