# Michigan Consumer Expectations: release dates, results and history


    Michigan Consumer Expectations last printed 47.3 on Fri, Oct 9, 2026 against a 46.3 prior. The next release is Friday, October 23, 2026 at 10:00 AM ET. Captured live by Helious the moment it printed.

    Expectations is the forward-looking half of the consumer survey. It asks households where they see their own finances, business conditions and jobs a year from now. That half is why the survey sits in the leading indicators, and turns there tend to show up before the sentiment headline moves and before spending itself changes direction. The mid-month preliminary print is the one markets trade. The final is usually noise.

      Every print the desk has captured for this series, drawn as a trend. The graded history, with consensus and the standard-deviation surprise on every row, comes through the [Helious API](https://helious.io/developers/).





## How it moves Treasuries

    A drop in expectations leans bullish Treasuries, on the read that the consumer is about to slow, but the move on its own is small. The reaction usually comes off the inflation expectations in the same release. See it scored live on the [Helious desk](https://helious.io/),
