09:25 AM EDT, 07/20/2026 (MT Newswires) -- UK consumer confidence improved but remained downbeat in July on the back of "calmer" geopolitical conditions and lower energy prices amid the US-Iran ceasefire, S&P Global said Monday. The S&P Global UK Consumer Sentiment Index reached a four-month high of 43.4, up from 42.2 in June. The household finance, spending sentiment, labor market sentiment, debt sentiment, and savings indices all rose during the month.
