Are things on the up?

I was heartened to read that according to a survey released yesterday, consumer confidence is at its highest level in a year, after recording its third monthly rise - the public's view of the overall state of the economy brightened from -31 to -15 over the past month, and the rating of the state of their own personal finances rose from -6 to -3. Is it the weather, the thought of a summer holiday or an overall perception that 'we've got through the worst of it'?

I'd be interested to hear your views and if this cautious optimism is feeding through to the consulting community?
