The Redbook Index of U.S. same-store retail sales posted a modest uptick in early June, suggesting consumer spending is holding steady with a slight upward bias. According to the latest data updated on June 9, 2026, year-over-year sales growth rose to 9.1%, up from the previous reading of 9.0%.
The Redbook data compare retail sales in the current month to the same month a year earlier, with the prior figure reflecting a similar year-over-year comparison for the previous month. The incremental rise from 9.0% to 9.1% indicates that, on balance, U.S. retailers are seeing slightly stronger demand than a year ago, though without a dramatic shift in the overall growth trend.
