The University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index rates the relative level of current and future economic conditions. There are two versions of this data released two weeks apart, preliminary and revised. The preliminary data tends to have a greater impact. The reading is compiled from a survey of around 500 consumers.

A higher than expected reading should be taken as positive/bullish for the USD, while a lower than expected reading should be taken as negative/bearish for the USD.

must have been 500 hand-picked people as the sentiment is not good. I went to Kohl's the other day and walked in to buy a pair of shorts. $29.00 normally, knocked down to $7. They handed me "Kohl's cash" which paid for the shorts and I handed the remainder maybe $20 to the woman behind me. yes, that "sentiment" is good but that does not bode well for earnings and stocks.
