The University of Michigan's final Consumer Sentiment Index for July 2025 registered at 61.7, slightly below the estimated 62.0 and marginally down from the previous reading of 61.8 in June. This marks an improvement from June's final figure of 60.7 but remains below the 66.4 recorded in the same period last year. The Current Conditions Index rose to 68.0, surpassing estimates of 67.1 and the prior 66.8. However, the Expectations Index declined to 57.7, below the forecast of 58.9 and the previous 58.6. Inflation expectations showed mixed results: the one-year inflation expectation increased to 4.5%, above the 4.4% forecast and previous reading, while the five- to ten-year inflation outlook decreased to 3.4%, below the estimated and prior 3.6%. These figures suggest a modest improvement in consumer sentiment alongside evolving inflation expectations amid the broader economic environment.
