    Abstract

    The Consumer Sentiment Index (Chart 1) fell for a third consecutive month from 96.4 points in September to 93.5 points in October. Relative to the same period last year, this represents a fall of 11.3 index points. Similar double-digit declines have occurred within the two subcomponents of the index; Current Economic Conditions and Consumer Expectations. Significant downward revisions in macroeconomic outlooks and attitudes towards major household purchases appear to have driven the overall decline in sentiment.
