Consumer confidence creeps up amid trade war lull and easing costs

One in four consumers plan to spend more on their holiday than they did a year ago

Survey results suggest no significant change in planned holiday spend this year.

A lull in the global trade war and a slight easing in living costs have led to a marginal increase in consumer confidence here.

The Credit Union Consumer Sentiment Index's reading for June remains well below the reading in June 2024, suggesting households remain concerned about their economic future.
