The Monthly State Retail Sales (MSRS) report is a blended data product combining Monthly Retail Trade Survey data, administrative data, and third-party data. Data are available for year-over-year percent changes for Total Retail Sales excluding Nonstore Retailers as well as 11 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) retail subsectors. For more information on the MSRS view the methodology (https://www.census.gov/data/experimental-data-products/monthly-state-retail-sales.html). This is the first version of these experimental data. This series measures retail sales for home centers; paint and wallpaper stores; hardware stores; other building material dealers; outdoor power equipment stores; nursery, garden center, and farm supply stores. The listed retailers correspond to 44411, 44412, 44413, 44419, 44421, 44422 in the 2017 NAICS manual.

Type keywords to search for data

    Now create a custom formula to combine or transform the series.

    For example, invert an exchange rate by using formula 1/a, where “a” refers to the first FRED data series added to this line. Or calculate the spread between 2 interest rates, a and b, by using the formula a - b.

    Use the assigned data series variables (a, b, c, etc.) together with operators (+, -, *, /, ^, etc.), parentheses and constants (1, 1.5, 2, etc.) to create your own formula (e.g., 1/a, a-b, (a+b)/2, (a/(a+b+c))*100). As noted above, you may add other data series to this line before entering a formula.

    Finally, you can change the units of your new series.
