Fox Business’s Stuart Varney said President Donald Trump’s “growth agenda” restored consumer confidence and fiscal prosperity throughout the country.

Varney claimed consumer confidence is an important indicator of a healthy economy and said it’s currently off the charts. (RELATED: Trump’s Trade Deal With Mexico Is A Win For The White House And For America, Says Stuart Varney)

“This is one of the most important economic indicators there is. And it’s an absolute blow-out number,” Varney said on “Fox & Friends” Wednesday. “It’s a signal of the spectacular success of the Trump growth agenda and another signal that it will actually keep on going.”

“If people are optimistic — If they’re confident about their future, they will spend some money. They maybe change their jobs. They maybe get a better house. They will spend,” he added.

Varney claimed the public’s newfound optimism is a result of Trump’s fiscal policies and celebrated the return of prosperity to America.

“You’ve got a record low unemployment. You’ve got 4 percent growth for the overall economy,” he concluded.

“Wages are rising. Especially for people with a skill. So there’s this optimism, there’s this confidence, there’s this dynamism. There’s this vigor in our society. Prosperity has returned. And that indicator tells the story — optimism at [an] 18-year high.”
