"After a significant improvement in August consumer confidence increased in September and remains at an 18-year maximum," said Lynn Franco, director of economic indicators at the Conference Board. "September's reading does not deviate from the record level of 144.7, which was achieved in 2000. The assessment of current conditions by consumers remains extremely favorable, supported by the strong economy and dynamic employment growth, and the expectations index increased in September, suggesting solid economic growth of over 3.0 percent for the remainder of the year. This record-high level of trust should continue to support consumer spending and should be good news for retailers who are getting ready for the holiday season. "
