Sweden Consumer Confidence
The Consumer Confidence Index in Sweden is based on a monthly survey of 1500 households. Consumers' assessments of their personal finances and the country's economy, their expectation for interest rates and inflation, as well as their plans for large purchases and savings, are all included in the survey.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the SEK while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the SEK.
