WHAT: Mexican retail sales data for November
WHEN: Monday, Jan. 25 at 9:00 a.m. (1500 GMT)
REUTERS FORECAST: Median -3.3 pct y/y Nov; 12 analysts
FACTORS TO WATCH: Through 2009, retail sales were down every month from their year-ago level and a recovery in consumer spending is expected to lag other indicators of economic health, like unemployment which fell for the third straight month in December. An unexpected increase in sales could have policymakers more watchful of inflation.
