Consumer confidence in the US rebounded in May, ending three months of decline, with the Conference Board's index rising to 102 from 97.5 in April, exceeding economists' expectations. The rise was fueled by a strong labor market, which offset slightly less positive views on current business conditions. Fewer consumers found jobs hard to get, and expectations for future business conditions improved. However, concerns about prices, particularly for food and groceries, still linger, with inflation expectations at 5.4%. Wealthier Americans, especially those making over $100,000 a year, showed the most confidence, with over 48% expecting stock prices to rise in the next year.

According to Scotiabank's Chief Risk Officer Phil Thomas, while talks of rate reductions by the Bank of Canada in June and July are ongoing, it will likely take up to three quarters for the interest-rate cuts to have a substantial impact on Canadian consumers. The bank's provisions for loan losses in Canada nearly doubled in the last quarter, with homeowners potentially saving an average of C$100 ($73) per month on mortgage payments with a 25-basis-point rate cut. However, the effects may initially help borrowers with overdue payments, but will take time to fully support customers, especially with the prospect of a prolonged period of higher interest rates.
