“Confidence pulled back in June but remained within the same narrow
range that’s held throughout the past two years, as strength in current
labor market views continued to outweigh concerns about the future.
However, if material weaknesses in the labor market appear, Confidence
could weaken as the year progresses,” said Dana M. Peterson, Chief Economist at The Conference Board.
