U.S. consumers become more confident
The confidence level among American consumers jumped to its largest level since October during the last week, as the benchmark Bloomberg indicator rose to -31.3 points, while the previous value was -33.7 points. Therefore, losses made by the U.S. government Shutdown were almost fully erased. Moreover, the consumer confidence during the Thanksgiving week this year is the biggest since 2007.
