The CB consumer sentiment made a u-turn this month

The sentiment reversed this month

The US CB consumer confidence took a deep dive during March and April, falling from above 130 points to around 85 points. In May the sentiment was little changed, but today we saw a jump higher, as the reopening is increasing sales and the confidence among US consumers. Expectations were for a small improvement to 91.4 points, but the sentiment grew to 98.1 points in June.
