At the same time, Moody 's Moodie said that although "Brexit off Europe" will not have a substantial impact on US retailers, it may impact consumer confidence and capital markets, thereby indirectly affecting consumer spending in the US.

And because of the stronger exchange pressure of the US dollar, the profitability of international retailers such as GapInc., CoachInc., NYSE:COH and Abercrombie&FitchCo. (NYSE:ANF) will be further pressurized, and it will also reduce consumer spending in the US. Many retailers, including Macy 'sInc. Messi department store, have suffered.

As the largest department store in the United States, Macy Messi sInc. Department blamed the weak performance in the first quarter earnings report, and the decline in passenger traffic has been a common cause of the department store industry in the past two years.

(NASDAQ:AMZN) Amazon and the continued improvement of home and auto parts industry, the US retail market sales and operating profit in 2017 will grow by about 5%.
