Introduction to Forex News Trading
The latest Michigan Consumer Sentiment report showed consumer sentiment remaining low, from a historical basis, but beating market expectations by a margin. Year-ahead inflation expectations fell to 4% from 4.4% while the five-year reading nudged a touch higher to 3% from 2.9% in December. The one-year reading is the lowest since April 2021. According to the University of Michigan, ‘Uncertainty over both inflation expectations measures remains high, and changes in global factors in the months ahead may generate a reversal in recent improvements’.
