Bloomberg International Economics and Policy Correspondent Michael McKee discusses US consumer sentiment falling to a more than two-year low and long-term inflation expectations jumped by the most since 1993, illustrating growing apprehension about the economic impact from tariffs.
The preliminary March sentiment index dropped to 57.9, the lowest level since November 2022, from 64.7 a month earlier, according to University of Michigan data issued Friday. The figure was weaker than all estimates in a Bloomberg survey of economists.
Consumers expect prices to rise at an annual rate of 3.9% over the next five to 10 years, up 0.4 percentage point from the prior month and the highest in more than three decades. They saw costs rising at an annual rate of 4.9% over the next year, up from 4.3% and the highest since 2022.
Zach Wasserman, CFO of Huntington Bancshares and Bloomberg News Senior Editor Nina Trentmann share thoughts on business sentiment, the consumer and interest rates. Jason Britton, CIO at Reflection Asset Management, talks about markets and tariffs.
Hosts: Tim Stenovec and Norah Mulinda. Producer: Paul Brennan.
