Consumer confidence has remained low, according to recent economic indicators. A slight increase was reported in June, but this followed a significant downward revision of the previous month's data.

The Conference Board's gauge of consumer sentiment was revised downward for May, which puts the June uptick into perspective. This suggests that consumer confidence is still not strong.

Further details on the current state of consumer confidence can be found through The Conference Board's reports, as covered by KTXS, the local ABC affiliate in Abilene, Texas.
