Eurozone unemployment steady but retail sales rebound
The unemployment picture is still mixed across the Eurozone
The eurozone's unemployment rate remained stable at 12.1% in November, but retail sales in the area rebounded strongly, latest figures show.
Some 19.2 million people were out of work in the 17 countries using the euro, according to the EU statistics office, Eurostat.
But retail trade in the currency area went up by 1.4% month-on-month, the biggest rise since November 2001, led by booming sales of non-food products.
