0130GMT - Australia - Retail Sales for February

• expected +0.3% m/m, prior +0.4%


• Westpac are a little more upbeat on retail sales data now (though their forecast for the month is in line with the median), saying:"The recent pattern has been driven by significant moves in "household goods" retail where the closure of the Masters Home Improvement chain created a big drag on both prices and volumes late last year"
