Consumer Sentiment Gap Raises Recession Fears The U.S. stock market and economy are currently experiencing an unusual split, which could mean trouble is on the horizon… There’s a significant gap between the Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index (CCI) and the University of Michigan’s Index of Consumer Sentiment (UMICS), which has historically preceded recessions. In the past, this has been a reliable recession indicator. Factors contributing to these differing perspectives include disparities in stock and home ownership, varying impacts of interest rates, and contrasting employment reports. Investors are advised to recognize the validity of both perspectives to navigate these economic uncertainties effectively. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Larry Fink Critiques India's Gold Obsession: Little Economic or Investor Benefit READ MORE Ray Dalio Advocates for Gold in the Face of Looming Debt and Inflation Threats READ MORE Citi Analysts Eye $3,000 Mark for Gold READ MORE Housing Costs Fuel Jump in Core US Inflation READ MORE Fed Chair Powell Stresses Patience on Rate Cuts Amid Inflation Battle READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
