Brazil Consumer Confidence
In Brazil, the National Index of Consumer Expectation (INEC) covers about 2,000 individuals randomly chosen in the streets of Brazilian cities. The questionnaire focuses on the consumer’s current financial situation and on expectations about inflation, unemployment, wages and major purchases for the next 6 months. The consumer confidence index is a diffusion index, ranging from 0 to 100 points. Values above 50 points indicates increasing confidence while values below 50 points indicates lack of confidence.
