According to data released by RealClearMarkets (RCM), US consumer confidence fell sharply in April. The RCM/TIPP Economic Optimism Index declined to 42.8 from 47.5 in March, marking the lowest level since June 2024 and coming in below the market forecast of 48.1. Concerns over the Middle East war and rising gasoline prices weighed on sentiment. The index has remained below the neutral 50 mark for eight consecutive months, indicating persistent pessimism.

The six-month economic outlook dropped 10.5% to 38.5, reflecting deepening concerns about the near-term economic prospects. The personal financial outlook also weakened, falling 7.6% to 50.2. Meanwhile, confidence in federal economic policies declined markedly, with the gauge falling from 45.1 to 39.8, highlighting growing public skepticism about the government's ability to address economic challenges amid heightened uncertainty.
