The weekly Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Rating shows Consumer Confidence falling to 118.9pts (down 4.9pts since April 20/21, 2013). Consumer Confidence is now 6.5pts higher than at the same time a year ago when it was 112.4. This week’s fall in Consumer Confidence has been driven by decreasing confidence in across all components of the survey.

Fewer Australians 33% (down 4%) expect ‘good times’ economically over the next twelve months for the Australian economy compared to 27% (up 3%) that expect ‘bad times’.

Now 34% (down 4%) of Australians expect ‘good times’ for the Australian economy over the next five years (the lowest since December 8/9, 2012) compared to 19% (up 2%) that expect Australia to have ‘bad times’ (the highest since December 8/9, 2012).
