Economic calendar: US CB Consumer Confidence report in focus

Today’s economic calendar is relatively light, although U.S. Conference Board data will provide additional insight into “Main Street” sentiment. Recent U.S. consumer sentiment readings have been very weak, with University of Michigan indices falling to record lows- raising the question of whether the Conference Board survey will confirm this weakness on a similar scale.
