Economists had been predicting that retail sales would increase by 0.2%. The data highlights the pressure that the consumer is under as the ECB continues to hike interest rates and as inflation remains high.<\/p>\n<p>While inflation has started to cool, which could help retail sales in the coming months, the rebound is likely to be limited until real wages start to rise later in the year.<\/p>\n<p>The pound pushed higher on Tuesday despite data from the British Retail Consortium showing that the bank holidays hadn\u2019t boosted retail sales across May. Total sales dropped by 3% during the last month, with just four categories posting sales figures.<\/p>\n<p>BRC CEO Helen Dickinson said that \u201cThe trio of bank holidays has failed to get shoppers spending\u201d.
