Consumer Confidence figures are expected today at 10:00 AM. Consumer Confidence had decreased to 46.0 in February from 56.5 in January. Concerns about current business conditions and the job market pushed the Present Situation Index down to its lowest level in 27 years. The short-term outlook also took a turn for the worse, with fewer consumers anticipating any improvement in business conditions and the job markets over the next six months.
