since.....the CPI fell "unexpectedly" again this month. Funny how it's always "unexpected" to the leftists....when things get worse instead of better. Especially since we on the right could have told them...and DID, in fact, that their policies are bad for America.
Obviously, despite Obama's pie-in-the-sky bleatings (read: lies and BS) about how the economy is 'recovering'....most Americans are opting to believe their own eyes, rather than to believe what Obama says.....
which is a good start.
Consumer Confidence Unexpectedly Falls in January
Consumer confidence unexpectedly fell in January as more Americans worried about the country's weak job market, according to a private sector report released on Tuesday.
The Conference Board, an industry group, said its index of consumer attitudes dropped to 61.1 from an upwardly revised 64.8 the month before.
Economists had expected a reading of 68.0, according to a Reuters poll. December was originally reported as 64.5.
Consumers' labor market assessment worsened. The "jobs hard to get" index increased to 43.5 percent from 41.6 percent the month before. The "jobs plentiful" index also darkened, dropping to 6.1 percent from 6.6 percent.
The expectations index fell to 76.2 from 77.0, while the present situation index decreased to 38.4 from 46.5.
