Consumer confidence in the U.S. is a key indicator of economic health, reflecting how optimistic or pessimistic consumers feel about their financial situation. Recently, confidence levels have fluctuated due to inflation, interest rates, and global market conditions. When confidence is high, consumers are more likely to spend, boosting economic growth. Conversely, low confidence leads to reduced spending, which can slow down the economy. The Federal Reserve closely monitors these trends, adjusting policies like interest rates to stabilize the market. In December 2024, confidence took a dip as inflationary pressures persisted. As we move into 2025, all eyes are on whether this will impact consumer behavior and economic forecasts.
