Australia NAB Business Confidence
The National Australia Bank's poll of market confidence is based on a telephone survey of around 600 small, medium, and large non-agricultural businesses. A simple average of trading, profitability and employment indicators stated by respondents for their selected businesses are used to generate the Survey's estimates for business conditions for the upcoming month. The indices are produced by separating the percentage of respondents who nominate good or very good, or an increase, by the percentage of respondents who nominate poor or very poor, or a decrease.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the AUD while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the AUD.
