Consumer Confidence Soars In June On Spike In Hope
As Gallup's Consumer Confidence plunges, The Conference Board's Consumer Confidence explodes higher from 94.6 to 101.4 (smashing expectations of 97.4). After missing by the most in 5 years in April, higher gas prices, market instability, and growing social unrest appear to be the perfect recipe for improved consumer confidence as The Conference Board data nears the highest since 2007. The biggest driver of the headline spike is the surge in "expectations" - in other words, hope - which jumped from 86.2 to 94.6, although expectations for higher incomes finally began to drop back to reality.
June's 101.4 print is near the highest sicne 2007...
Hope had fallen to its lowest level since June 2014 in May, but June 2015's spike to 94.6 nears the highest of the cycle. From hopeless to hopeful.

Fools. Government educated/indoctrinated fools.
Hope always ends.........................at the end of a ROPE!
long Hope!
Must be the Flouride...
They're banking on all of the extra economic activity that will be created through the purchase of wedding dresses and cakes by homosexual wedding parties in North and South Dakota.
Or they're completely full of shit.
The Titanic is completely unsinkable.......
And Chemtrails, SSRI,s, GMO,s, Vaccines and the end of The Smith-Mundt Act
Consumer Confidence at its best. http://www.macon.com/2015/06/29/3821075/report-macon-wal-mart-mob-wanted...
I'm guessing the sales of anti-depressents follows this trend line as well.
"I love the smell of hopium in the morning."
This shit is getting hard to read!
I find a shot of Crown makes that task little easier
You can buy a 3-pack of 2.00x reading glasses from Rite Aid for about $8. That's what I do.
CONsumers are happy because June is the month we get to celebrate our gayness in America. Isn't it fabulouuuuuus?
I'm not a gay black woman, but I now identify as one. I hope this doesn't change things between us or I'll have to call you a racist, bigoted homophobe.
How did our country get so bullshit so fast? I'm guessing 'years of practice'.
"How did our country get so bullshit so fast?"
That's the question I keep asking myself. Over the years it's been like a slow motion train wreck and now it's like the whole country went fucking insane overnight.
This is an easy question to answer......zionism mixed with political correctness. In otherwords the Protocols of Zion have been fully implemented. It seems like overnight because it literally has.

Oops you hurt the feelings of some miserly little Chosenite. We have been reminded ad infinitum that the Protocols are an antisemitic FRAUD! No basis in fact! Hateful lies!
No wonder they will hurl their epithets, trying to explain it away with rationality and facts would make Chosenite heads explode.
Oh Thtop it...
I Hope every thing is alright with YOU.

It looks like Fairyland! It's OuterSpace and it's just so BeautiFull.
Do we get a Stalinist 'hope' poster with this dose of horseshit?
Yeah, it come in the form of an Obama flag:

It is quite apropos that Obama is scowling on that flag. What a piece of shit.
People are getting whipsawed. The markets have people dizzy from all the hopium mixed with shit dust the Fed sprinkles on everything.
My confidence soared when I got my money out of the bank. There was a bank fee every step of the way which nulified all my interest even though I cashed out at maturity. In Chinada we've had bail in legislation since 2013 and they will use it. Pay their fees and flee if you still can
G.O.T.S. ---- NOW.
i remain CONFIDENT that i am correct. that eventually Gold will be wise to own... and that the stock market really will crash and burn.. (as it ALWAYS Does!)
Consumer confidence is up and retail stores are empty. Sure, we all belive this report!
Wake me up on Hispanic low-wage jobs Friday:-) You white guys just don't understand HOPE:-)
Sure it does.
The amount of BS being commandered to address the present malaise is beyond anything I had anticipated. The depth of the the well of deception, lies, and criminality has exceeded the bounds of my imagination. It is truly a no holds barred desperation that frankly scrares the living shit out of me. The corruption on display is humbling beyond words. Where will it all end? My hope for something reasonable is shot to hell.
The wrath of hell is upon us.
We must NOT but HUMBLED. We must be ENRAGED!
Some of us need to stay rational there, RT Bomb Thrower.
Your anger issues are legend, even outside the LGBT community.
Fuck that.
They have been legalizing marijuana lately - might be the cause of that hopey thingy.
on other news, corruption among economic survey reporters surges to all time high.
you don't get audited or risk going to jail when reporting these pathetic, made-up confidence numbers.
Preppers prepping?
WTF? With all the shit hitting the fan confidence soars?
Makes me want to go out and take on thousands of dollars in debt...... Not.
I'm not seeing it. People still aren't buying bigger ticket items. June has been the worst month this year for larger purchases.
The government is lying to average out the numbers.
yes. the Government is LYING!!!!!! (again)
Seriously, where do they get these numbers? They must stand outside of TityBars in D.C. on EBT day handing out $10.00 Walmart gift cards to drunk patrons if they'll answer a few questions.
No hope without dope.
Consumers are confident that things are t-totally fucked up!
Must have been surveying inside the Beltway.
Evil is Good, Hope is Fear, Black is White, Wrong is Right.
The bread and circus of the warm summer sunshine.
I bought groceries yesterday. I guess that make me a confident consumer.
What fucking bullshit, the "consumer" is broke, broke, broke. Only confidence they seem to have is that government will keep doling out the money.
Hopium: now available in 6 rainbow flavors all tasting like sh**.
It must be all those higher egg prices that makes people feel so extra confident.
