Consumer confidence falters after months of improvement

The index fell four points to -6, which is still above its average over the past 20 years.

In April 2000, the indicator reached an all-time high of 27 and in February 2013 the indicator reached an all-time low (-44).

In particular, consumers were more pessimistic about their personal financial situation over the next 12 months and 38 percent expect unemployment to continue to rise, the CBS said.
