    Abstract

    The Consumer Sentiment Index (Chart 1) increased in May to 106.7 index points. On an annual basis, the Index rose by 6.2 points. This improvement mainly stems from an improved outlook with respect to current economic conditions: households were more positive about how their personal financial situation changed over the past 12 months as well as whether it was a good time to make larger purchases. However, consumers’ were a little more restrained in terms of their future economic outlook.
