Consumer sentiment data from the University of Michigan

U Mich sentiment
  • Prior was 79.0
  • Prelim was 76.2
  • Expectations 70.7 vs 69.8 prelim
  • Conditions 86.2 vs 86.2 prelim
  • 1 year inflation at 3.3% vs 3.3% prelim
  • 5-10 year inflation at 2.7% vs 2.7% prelim

That’s a modest beat on higher expectations but the market isn’t focused on survey data at the moment, it’s focused on bond and yields are ticking higher.
