Consumer confidence slumps to 12-year low as Americans fret over their financial prospects​


Americans are increasingly anxious about their financial prospects, with a closely watched gauge of consumer confidence slumping to a 12-year low amid growing concerns about tariffs and inflation.

The Conference Board said Tuesday that its consumer confidence index fell 7.2 points in March to 92.9, the fourth straight monthly decline and its lowest level since January of 2021. The reading was short of analysts expectations for a reading of 94.5, according to a survey by FactSet.

The consumer confidence index measures both Americans' assessment of current economic conditions and their outlook for the next six months. The business group found that the measure of Americans' short-term expectations for income, business and the job market fell 9.6 points to 65.2. That's the lowest reading in 12 years and well below the threshold of 80, which the Conference Board says can signal a potential recession in the near future.
They are still making decisions. They are not sitting on their hands. There maybe some uncertainty in a few of the decisions. But if need be they will make adjustments tomorrow and continue on.
There was uncertainty during COVID. There was uncertainty when world wars broke out. There will always be uncertainties but the heads of corporations are expected to adjust and deal with it even if it has to be a day to day adjustment.
But hey I get it you want to make everything about the other side being bad.
 
The two major parties have it all worked out. When it comes time to toss one side out the only realistic choice is the other. Voters are stuck choosing between candidates chosen by an extreme minority of American citizens. 0% in the primary elections for the Democrat's side in the last election. On the Republican side it wasn't all that much better with Trump in the primaries receiving 11% of the total votes cast in November's presidential election.
