Consumer Confidence Surveys – As Of May 28, 2024

Advisor Perspectives had a post of May 28, 2024 (“Consumer Confidence Improves for First Time in Four Months“) that displays the latest Conference Board Consumer Confidence and University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index charts.  They are presented below:

Conference Board Consumer Confidence 102.0

University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index 69.1

While I don’t believe that confidence surveys should be overemphasized, I find these readings and trends to be notable, especially in light of a variety of other highly disconcerting measures highlighted throughout this site.
