To anticipate their mood and spending, watch energy prices first, not the day's news.","market_impact":"It mainly hits the dollar, US stocks, gold and Treasuries. Because the number beat expectations but inflation expectations fell, the dollar barely moved. Stocks took the positive read: a better mood plus lower expected inflation feed hopes for rate cuts. Bonds rose (yields fell) as long-run inflation expectations dropped sharply. Gold stayed near $4,200, propped up by Middle East tension.","what_it_means":"American consumer confidence rose for the first time in four months, helped by gasoline prices easing in early June. It came in at 48.9 versus 46.0 expected, up from a record low of 44.8. Even with the bounce, it's still the second-lowest reading since the 1970s: people remain worried about the high cost of living. The quiet good news is that they expect less inflation ahead (one-year down from 4.8% to 4.6%, long-run from 3.9% to 3.4%)."},"source_url":"https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/consumer-confidence","occurred_at":"2026-06-13T03:28:16.089+00:00","published_at":"2026-06-13T03:28:16.089+00:00","brief_url":"https://vectorialdata.com/economia/2026-06-12-us-us-confianza-del-consumidor-u-michigan-preliminar-junio/brief.md","page_url":"https://vectorialdata.com/economia/2026-06-12-us-us-confianza-del-consumidor-u-michigan-preliminar-junio","json_ld":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Dataset","name":"US Confianza del Consumidor U.
