周五，密歇根大学密歇根大学公布的消费者信心指数初值降至77.9，低于3月份向上修正后的79.4。该数据明显低于预期，因为经济学家预计信心指数将保持相对稳定在79。
令人失望的经济数据增加了黄金市场的避险买盘。
密歇根大学对消费者信心的下降不予理会，指出消费者信心已经连续四个月相当稳定，“因为消费者认为经济没有什么有意义的发展。”
消费者调查主管Joanne Hsu表示：“自一月份以来，消费者信心指数一直稳定在2.5的窄幅区间内，远低于5的读数在统计上的显著差异。然而，4月份通胀预期略有上升，反映出一些人对通胀放缓可能已经停滞感到沮丧。总的来说，鉴于即将到来的大选，消费者对经济持保留态度。在许多消费者看来，大选可能会对经济走势产生重大影响。”
