The post US UoM Consumer Sentiment falls to 47.6 in April, its lowest level on record appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

American consumer confidence deflated in early April, as households grew more pessimistic about current conditions and the broader economic outlook, according to preliminary data from the University of Michigan released on Friday. The closely watched Consumer Sentiment Index receded to 47.6 from 53.3 in the previous month, missing economists’ expectations (52) and falling to the lowest level recorded in the survey’s 70-plus-year history.
