The questionnaire survey investigated the consumer confidence of the 35 Chinese cities. According to the survey findings，in 2019，the weighted mean of the consumer confidence sub-indices is 138.61. The values of all the 35 cities exceed 100 and are higher than that of 2018，indicating that a good foundation has been laid for China’s transition into consumer-oriented economy. Regional comparison shows that the sub-indices of the central and the western regions are slightly higher than those of the northeastern and the eastern regions，and that the sub-indices of different regions are generally consistent in the direction and range of changes. Through correlation analysis，it is found that changes of the consumer confidence sub-index are highly and positively correlated with that of the inflation rate and the consumption rate. That is to say，increase in consumer confidence will lead to higher inflation and consumption. According to the regression analysis of the major influential factors of consumer confidence changes，improvements in per capita disposable income or the coverage of basic medical insurance/unemployment insurance have a strong positive impact on the sub-index，but not per capita wealth or social insurance coverage. Therefore，the key to stabilizing consumer confidence lies in the stabilization of residents’ income and employment，as well as the coverage of improved social security，along with the continuous development and improvement of the financial market.
