NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- "A key measure of consumer confidence continued to slip in October, with consumers' gauge of the current economic situation falling to a 26-year low, a research group said Tuesday.
The Conference Board, the New York-based research group said its Consumer Confidence Index fell to 47.7 in October from an upwardly revised 53.4 in September.
Economists were expecting the index to increase to 53.5, according to a Briefing.com consensus survey. The figure, which is based on a survey of 5,000 U.S. households, is closely watched because consumer spending makes up two-thirds of the nation's economic activity.
