On March 31, the Conference Board's Consumer Confidence Index in the United States rose slightly by 0.8 points to 91.8 in March, up from 91.0 in February. The present situation index, based on consumers' assessment of current business and labor market conditions, increased by 4.6 points to 123.3. The expectations index fell by 1.7 points to 70.9. The pressure from rising costs due to tariff pass-through and soaring oil prices has been reflected in inflation expectations and other indicators. 'Consumer confidence saw a slight increase in March, mainly due to an improvement in perceptions of current conditions offsetting a slight weakening in future expectations,' said Dana M Peterson, Chief Economist at the Conference Board. 'Three of the five subcomponents improved in March, and overall confidence has risen slightly for the second consecutive month. However, the index has still shown a downward trend since 2021.' Data also indicated that against the backdrop of oil price shocks triggered by the Iran war, consumers' average and median inflation expectations for the next 12 months surged in March to the highest level since August 2025. The proportion of consumers expecting interest rates to rise over the next 12 months jumped from 34.9% to 42.4%.

On March 31, Trump stated in an interview with CBS News that he is "not ready yet" to abandon efforts to force Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. CBS reporter called Trump on Tuesday morning local time, asking him to clarify his earlier hints that he might abandon related actions. Trump reiterated his dissatisfaction with other countries not sending military forces to participate in U.S. and Israeli military actions against Iran, but stated he is not yet prepared to withdraw the U.S. from the conflict. "At some point, I will do that, but not now. Other countries must get involved and handle it themselves. Iran has been weakened, but they must do the work themselves." Trump also reiterated that despite Iran still attacking ships and infrastructure in Gulf countries, there is "no real threat" to the Strait of Hormuz. "Let them fight for it themselves. They are unwilling to help anyone. NATO is terrible, they are all terrible. So if they want oil, they should go get it themselves," Trump said. (Jinshi)

According to Bloomberg, The Federal Reserve can’t pause its campaign of monetary policy tightening once its benchmark interest rate reaches 4.5% to 4.75% if “underlying” inflation is still accelerating, Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari said. “Core services inflation -- which is the stickiest of all -- keeps climbing, and we keep getting surprised on the upside,” Kashkari said Tuesday during a panel discussion hosted by the Women Corporate Directors Minnesota Chapter. “If we don’t see progress in underlying inflation, or core inflation, I don’t see why I would advocate stopping at 4.5, or 4.75, or something like that.” He emphasized that Fed officials “need to bring demand down” to fight inflation, though he also argued that inflationary pressures aren’t being driven primarily by a tight labor market. “This inflation didn’t come from the labor market. This inflation came from supply chains and energy and commodities,” Kashkari said.
