Camping World closed the second quarter with 200 locations, down just one from a year earlier. But the retailer booked $13.1 million in long-lived asset impairment in the quarter, up from zero the previous year, signalling it's writing down properties that won't recover their investment. The company sold $67.6 million in real estate in the first half whilst spending only $1.4 million buying property, reversing the prior year's $72.4 million outlay and $9.8 million in sales. New RV unit sales fell 16.4% to 22,312. Average selling prices rose 13.6% to $38,950, but per-unit costs climbed 17.4%, squeezing new vehicle gross margin to 10.9%, down 286 basis points.

US retail sales fell 0.6% in July, the largest decrease in over a year, according to the Census Bureau. The decline contrasted sharply with economists' expectations of a small increase. Motor vehicle and parts dealers saw sales drop 1.8%, whilst non-store retailers declined 2.2%. The unexpected slump suggests persistent inflation may be causing consumers to tighten their budgets. Several retail stocks declined following the data. Department store Dillard's fell 6.6%, vehicle retailer Camping World dropped 2.7%, and boat retailer OneWater declined 3%. Dillard's shares have experienced 16 moves greater than 5% over the past year.
