Consumer confidence dropped back to long-run averages in April as consumers grew less optimistic about their financial futures.

The ANZ Roy Morgan consumer confidence index fell 7.5 points to 120.5 in April, slightly above the historical average.
13 percent of respondents saw good economic times in the coming 12 months, down from a net 25 percent in March.
ANZ chief economist Sharon Zollner says despite strong current conditions, consumers appear to be feeling a little less bullet-proof.
