Maybe the government isn’t reading the room, how can anyone say the consumer sentiment drop was unexpected!
Confidence among U.S. consumers unexpectedly dropped to a one-year low in September, indicating the biggest part of the economy is being held back by a struggling labor market.
The Thomson Reuters/University of Michigan preliminary index of consumer sentiment fell to 66.6 from 68.9 in August, the group said today. This month’s reading was less than the most pessimistic forecast in a Bloomberg News survey.
