Good morning from Germany, where consumer sentiment fell for the 3rd time in a row, w/households' growing concerns about possible job losses & uncertainty about inflation weighing on the mood. The GfK Consumer Confidence Index, which measures consumer confidence for the following month, has dropped to -23.6 points for Sept. An increase to -21.5 points had been expected. A sharp fall in income prospects, which hit their lowest level since March, played a significant role in the overall decline.
