Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika Wirtschafts-Optimismus-Index

The RealClearMarkets/TIPP Economic Optimism Index for the US fell to 48.3 in October 2025, its lowest reading since May and below market expectations of 49.3.

Confidence in Federal Economic Policies, a proprietary RCM/TIPP measure of public sentiment toward government economic effectiveness, declined to 46.4 from 47.3, reversing a brief period above 50.0 that had ended a 47-month streak of pessimism dating back to September 2021. Meanwhile, the Personal Financial Outlook — reflecting how Americans view their own finances over the next six months — rose 4.1%, climbing from 53.4 in September to 55.6 in October.
