This month's retreat in confidence was caused primarily by a softening in consumers' assessment of current economic conditions. Consumers' expectations remain virtually undaunted and signal continued expansion in the months ahead.

Consumers' increasing pessimism about the short-term outlook has sent the Expectations Index into territory normally seen prior to a recession.
