Das US-Verbrauchervertrauen (Conference Board; Juni) ist mit 98,7 noch schwächer ausgefallen als erwartet (Prognose war 100,4; Vormonat war 106,4) – das ist der tiefste Stand seit Februar 2021!
Die Erwartung liegt bei 66,4 (Vormonat war 77,5) – tiefster Wert seit dem Jahr 2013!
Die Einschätzung der aktuellen Lage liegt bei 147,1 (Vormonat war 149,6)
Dazu schreibt das Conference Board, das die Daten erhebt:
“Consumer confidence fell for a second consecutive month in June,” said Lynn Franco, Senior Director of Economic Indicators at The Conference Board. “While the Present Situation Index was relatively unchanged, the Expectations Index continued its recent downward trajectory—falling to its lowest point in nearly a decade. Consumers’ grimmer outlook was driven by increasing concerns about inflation, in particular rising gas and food prices. Expectations have now fallen well below a reading of 80, suggesting weaker growth in the second half of 2022 as well as growing risk of recession by yearend.”
“Purchasing intentions for cars, homes, and major appliances held relatively steady—but intentions have cooled since the start of the year and this trend is likely to continue as the Fed aggressively raises interest rates to tame inflation. Meanwhile, vacation plans softened further as rising prices took their toll. Looking ahead over the next six months, consumer spending and economic growth are likely to continue facing strong headwinds from further inflation and rate hikes.”
