Economic pessimism lifted somewhat over the past month, but Americans' views of the near-term outlook for the U.S. economy remained modestly negative, the November IBD/TIPP Poll finds. The soft reading came despite a phase-one China trade deal announced by President Trump and a record high for the S&P 500. The Dow Jones and Nasdaq composite hit new records just after polling wrapped up.

Americans’ demand for new vehicles decelerated in October, as growing uncertainty over the U.S.-China trade dispute, coupled with escalating new-car prices, compels more consumers to hold off on auto purchases. After reaching its highest level in more than a year last month, TechnoMetrica’s Auto Demand Index plunged 13 points, or 10.1 percent, in October, to a reading of 116, the largest decline since May. Despite the sudden drop, the Index remains relatively strong, as October marks the fifth consecutive month in which the gauge has surpassed the 100-point benchmark, an indicator of high purchase intent levels. Thus, TechnoMetrica anticipates that, while vehicle purchase intent may have reached its peak for the year, auto sales should maintain a healthy pace in the near term, supported by a resilient labor market, lower interest rates, and rising incentives on outgoing model-year vehicles.

Americans' views of the near-term U.S. economic outlook remain solidly pessimistic, edging up only slightly from a three-year low, the October IBD/TIPP Poll found. The weak reading came despite an easing of China trade war tensions that fueled last month's stock market gains. But the rally lost steam as weaker economic data last week seemed to confirm that growth has turned sluggish, though the Dow Jones slashed weekly losses in volatile action. The House Democrats' opening of a Trump impeachment inquiry also may have weighed on the outlook.

LOS ANGELES -- October 8, 2019 -- The IBD/TIPP Economic Optimism Index, a leading national poll on consumer confidence, rose 3.5% to 52.6 in October, reversing two months of decline. The index now remains above 50.0 for a record 37 consecutive months, 34 of which have occurred during the Trump presidency. This is the longest streak in positive territory for any U.S. president since IBD/TIPP began tracking. Under President George W. Bush, the index had two separate 24-month runs above 50.0. An index reading below 50.0 for the IBD/TIPP indexes indicates pessimism.

The sudden race to impeach President Donald Trump has yet to have much of an impact on the Dow Jones or broader stock market. But it's premature to conclude that won't change as the public learns details of Trump's effort to get Ukraine to investigate potential 2020 election rival Joe Biden. If the president's approval rating takes a beating from Trump impeachment developments while odds soar that Elizabeth Warren wins the Democratic nomination, political risk will grow and stocks could suffer.

The good news from a new National Association of Realtors® (NAR) survey is that a large majority of respondents think it is a good time to buy a home. The bad news is that the largest percentage of those who gave that response are likely to already own one. NAR's third quarter Housing Opportunities and Market Experience (HOME) survey found 63 percent of respondents believing it is now a good time to buy, with 34 percent saying they believe that strongly. This is down slightly from the 65 percent who expressed that sentiment in the second quarter and the 38 percent who felt strongly about their response.
