2026.01.1416:00:00UTC+00US Consumer Sentiment Rises as PCSI Index Climbs in January

In a positive sign for the US economy, the Thomson Reuters IPSOS Primary Consumer Sentiment Index (PCSI) recorded an upswing in January 2026, reaching 53.81. This rise marks an increase from the December 2025 level of 51.86, indicating a noticeable improvement in consumer confidence entering the new year.

The data, updated on January 14, 2026, reflects a heightened optimism among US consumers regarding their financial stability and economic prospects. This boost in sentiment can be attributed to various factors, including steady job growth and resilient retail spending during the holiday season.

Analysts suggest that such an increase in consumer confidence could bolster economic activities, as higher sentiment often correlates with increased spending and investment. As the US economic outlook continues to gain strength, stakeholders will be closely monitoring these trends to capitalize on the positive momentum.
