30.07.202623:50:00UTC+00Japan’s June Retail Sales Growth Slows Sharply to 0.5% Year-on-Year

Japan’s retail sector lost momentum in June, with year-over-year sales growth easing sharply to 0.5%, down from a robust 5.3% in May 2026. The latest figures, updated on 30 July 2026, highlight a notable cooling in consumer activity after a strong rebound in the previous month.

Both the current and previous readings are based on year-over-year comparisons, measuring the change in retail sales for each month against the same month a year earlier. While May’s 5.3% gain suggested solid consumer demand, June’s 0.5% increase points to a significant deceleration, raising questions about the sustainability of Japan’s recent consumption-led support for the economy.
