The consumer confidence indicator in the Euro Area declined by 2.2 points to -16.7 in April 2025, marking its lowest level since November 2023 and confirming preliminary estimates. In the broader European Union, sentiment also fell, down 2.1 points to -16. The downturn was driven by worsening perceptions across all four components: consumers’ assessments of their past and future household financial situation, their intentions to make major purchases, and expectations for their country’s general economic outlook. The decline in expectations for the broader economic situation was particularly sharp.
