California's consumer confidence index made a significant recovery in September, rising by 25%, reaching its highest point since February 2023, while other states saw declines.
Despite a sour national outlook, California residents feel increasingly optimistic about the current economy, with a notable 32% increase in the index's 'present situation' measurement.
The future also seems promising for Californians, as the 'expectations' measurement hit a 30-month high, up by 18% in just one month and 22% in a year.
In stark contrast, the national consumer confidence declined by 7% in September, marking the steepest drop in three years, highlighting California's divergent economic sentiment.
