  • Consumer Sentiment Hits Record Low Amid Rising Inflation Under Trump Economy
    May 14, 2026, 5:52 AM EDT. The S&P 500 has risen 8% this year but faces challenges as consumer sentiment fell to a record low 48.2 in May, the weakest since 1952. The University of Michigan's index reflects growing pessimism, driven by soaring gasoline prices and tariffs amid President Trump's second term. Inflation accelerated to 3.8% in April, the highest in three years, largely influenced by disruptions in Middle East oil supply due to the conflict over the Strait of Hormuz. Consumer spending, which fuels two-thirds of U.S. GDP, may slow, risking earnings and stock market pressures. Experts caution that inflationary effects could linger well into 2027, potentially triggering a domino effect on economic growth and market stability.
