The ISAE Monthly Consumer Survey notes for the fourth consecutive month, rising confidence that brings the index to approach the levels of last January. In particular, the assessments of the general economic situation improve and, more slightly, those on the personal context, the current situation and expectations for the future (development of the country, labor market, cheaper to buy durable goods), while the opinions on possible savings remain negative. With regard to prices, judgments about the dynamics of the last twelve months indicate a slowdown, while stabilizing the expectations of deceleration in the short term. Confidence improves in the North West and the South of the country, but falls in the North West and Centre.
