The Bloomberg® Consumer Comfort Index™, a long-running weekly survey of U.S. consumer sentiment produced by Langer Research Associates, is newly available from Langer Research on a subscription basis.

Bloomberg continues to brand the index, cover it in its news reports and distribute CCI data to Bloomberg Professional Service subscribers. Subscription products available directly from Langer Research include our weekly analysis of CCI results, historical data for the index overall and among groups, historical subindex data among groups and respondent-level datasets for advanced analytical purposes.

Additionally, in response to user requests, this spring we will be rebasing the index on a scale 0 to 100, rather than the current -100 to +100. This rebasing, aimed at greater ease of interpretation, will be produced via a simple algorithm and applied retrospectively to all past CCI data.

The Consumer Comfort Index is a continuous, 28-year-old weekly measure of consumer sentiment. Branded by Bloomberg under agreement with Langer Research Associates since 2011, the index is closely followed for its high-frequency measurement of the American public’s economic attitudes, its long-term trend and its concurrent and predictive validity in relation to a variety of other economic indicators. Research indicates the CCI’s potential utility in a range of predictive modeling applications.
