United States CB Consumer Confidence Index rose to 91.2 in June
US consumer sentiment gains terrain in June, as the Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index rises to 91.2 from May’s 90.6 (revised from 93.1).
"Consumer confidence inched up in June as falling oil prices in recent weeks provided some relief to consumer inflation fears," said Dana M Peterson, Chief Economist, The Conference Board.
"Consumer appraisals of current business conditions were slightly more positive compared to last month. However, perceptions of the current labor market softened measurably as the percentage of consumers saying jobs were 'hard to get' rose to 22.5%, the highest level since January 2021 (22.8%). Moreover, consumers anticipate little change in the labor market six months from now. This was offset by improving expectations for business conditions and incomes."
Market reaction
The US Dollar (USD) reverses Monday’s losses, advancing near the 101.40 barrier.
