WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. consumer confidence rebounded more than expected in September as households' views of the labor market improved.

The Conference Board said on Tuesday its consumer confidence index increased to a reading of 101.8 this month from 86.3 in August. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast the index edging up to a reading of 89.5 in September.
