Description

Consumer confidence plummets as the Conference Board reports a five-month decline, with the index falling to 89.1 in December. Short-term expectations for incomes, business, and jobs remain low, while views on the current economic situation drop sharply. Job market perceptions also slip, with fewer people reporting plentiful jobs and more struggling to find work. Despite the gloom, many believe a recession next year is unlikely, as third quarter growth hit 4.3% annually. However, the fourth quarter looks sluggish with shutdowns and spending pullbacks. Amidst the uncertainty, finding reliable ways to rest and tune out the noise is more important than ever. Checkout Solipillow.com
