Consumer Confidence Misses 2nd Month In A Row Despite Record Stocks, Low Gas Prices
Having missed expectations by the most since June 2010 in November, The Conference Board's measure of Consumer Confidence missed once again. The previous dip was revised higher (because 'revisions' is exactly what makes sense in a confidence survey) from 88.7 to 91.0 but the current level printed 92.6 against expectations of 93.9. This is the 3rd miss of the last 4 months (as stocks hit record highs and gas prices collapse?). Employment "not so plentiful" rose to its worst level in a year, employment expectations going forward dropped as did income growth expectations.
Plans to buy a car also slipped with Home purchase plans the lowest in at least 6 months.

we'll be green by close, just sweep this under the rug for now
It's becoming an incredibly large rug.....
INCONCEIVABLE !!!
Largest rug ever woven.
The rug has many, many holes drilled in the floor underneath it from which air blows up under very, very high pressure (THE FED AT WORK)
Dirt is continuously swept under this massive rug by very, very large brooms (GOVT) (TBTF) same thing
Nice picture!
Happy New Year! Try not to start it off on a "V"
Hey dude, check out all the Algorithm / Agent Smith down votes. Puff, puff. Hey man stop Bogarting it.
Is that like Dr. Smith from "Lost in Space"?
No, big difference. Dr. Smith like Obama like to take it in the Brown & Gums.
Consumer confidence is the highest in six years but OMG it's a miss, because some economist thought it would be higher.
Why don't they just fix the "expecations" number at zero and then whatever the number, it exceeds those expecations?
I live my whole life like that. It's why I'm never depressed or disappointed.
expectations are resentments under construction
expectations are disappointments under construction
That what you mean?
IridiumRebel stated it exactly right. Although there are many versions.
Expectations, Disappointments, Resentments all come from the same place in your head that you may strive to avoid. Just a suggestion.
Happy New year!!!! Try not to start it off on a "V"
Meh, moar background noise. Just BTFD and drink to a new year. Profits for evrybody! Thank you Grandmama Yellen.
Removing gold you say? Paper or physical? big fucking difference.
Consumer confidence?
I am confident we are totally fucked.
Criminally Centrally Fascistically Fucked Beyond Belief.
The days of "MOAR" are numbered
It's a big club and you ain't in it BITCHEZ
btfd birtchez
easy money.
mr. yellen has set the price. [/randolph duke]
It feels like we'll be going down today
The beatings are obviously not producing the desired effect quickly enough.....double-plus beatings to commence until morale once again improves.
Hmmm, perhaps it's because we have been in a Hidden Depression since 08. And, all the Economic Stats, Charts, CNBC bullshit have been manipulated in a Huge Global Massive Criminal Central Banking Ponzi Scheme.
Just maybe?
I guess some TROLL had a ball ripping through with "V"'s today?
Puff, puff. Dude these down votes from the Algo's / Agent Smith are a real Head Killer man. Speaking Truth to PsyOp / Propaganda / False Narrative Script Power really sucks man.
Damn! That last down vote was just too quick. Fuck this. Break out the Blow man & hit me up quick with some lines. Time to get really Fucked up QE Ponzi Style & invest in the Global Manipulated Markets. That will be really take me to the "Heights" man.
As Wall Street continues to hire the best and brightest math minds sway from a research or academic calling.....................
About 25 seconds. Come on TROLLS pick it up! I want a 2 second "V" And I want it NOW, I want it YESTERDAY
that's better!
Ahhhhh, I just came. The only thing better would be the Algo's / Agent Smith's kicking off the site like they did yesterday. Fuck! I'll just go into the Sexual Afficiation after that.
Fuck it. I'm rubbing one off & hanging myself at the same time.
RE

Did you get your EBT card refilled Yes=Confident. No=I am confident I will.
Consumer confidence continues to reach new highs.
Food stamp recipients continue to reach new highs.
Student debt reaching new highs.
Unemployed youth, living at home, reaching new highs.
Yep, things are looking up.
Speaking of car sales.... In less than an hour of listening to the fm band in the car the other day I heard no less than three commercials for car dealers who were "suspending poor and bad credit restrictions on new car purchases..... for a limited time only, so hurry on down!"
