Consumer Confidence – Don’t Worry – Be Happy
Source: Rebel Traders
From Bloomberg…
Confidence among U.S. consumers increased in February to the highest level in three years as a drop in unemployment helped overcome concern over rising food and fuel costs.
The Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan final index of sentiment climbed to 77.5, exceeding the median forecast of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News, from 74.2 in January, a report today showed. The Commerce Department said the economy grew less than previously estimated in the fourth quarter as state and local governments cut back on spending.
The sentiment survey showed that for the first time in six years, households this month said they had heard more optimistic than pessimistic news on the economy, boosting the odds that consumer spending will keep bolstering the expansion. At the same time, a jump in fuel costs caused by the unrest in the Middle East threatens to keep the enthusiasm in check.
“We’ve clearly seen a bounce in the confidence numbers coincide with the gains in financial markets and the pickup in the economy, particularly the improving labor market,” said Jim O’Sullivan, global chief economist at MF Global Inc. in New York. “It was a bit of a surprise given the geopolitical tensions.”[...]
The most intriguing aspect of the survey announcement was this statement:
[...]households this month said they had heard more optimistic than pessimistic news on the economy[...]
Once again I will go back to something that has bothered me about a great number of people in this nation. And that is we are a nation of ’15 second news bits’. That seems to be the attention span of a great number of people anymore.If they hear it on TV then it must be true, even if all they heard was one short 15 second blub of some economic data point. So then they think everything is doing great again.
You are bring brainwashed more and more with each passing day.
