The economy continues to show signs of recovery while caught in a paradox with consumer confidence heading south. Consumer confidence is a key measure of economic health and also a sound indicator of spending trends. So now, with its thrust in reverse mode, some questions are being thrown towards the level of discretionary spending the economy is anticipating. Investors are also wondering whether discretionary stocks like Tiffany & Co (TIF), Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF), American Eagle Outfitters (AEO) and J. Crew (JCG) are still worthwhile.
Consumer confidence fell in July on concerns about jobs and business conditions, following a sharp decline in June, according to the Conference Board. July's consumer confidence index fell to 50.4, which is the lowest level since February. The figure is down from an upwardly revised 54.3 in June. Concerns about business conditions and the labor market are casting a dark cloud over consumers that is not likely to lift until the job market improves. Given consumers' heightened level of anxiety, along with their pessimistic income outlook and lackluster job growth, retailers are very likely to face a challenging back-to-school season.
