The ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence rating for Australia rose by 1.6 per cent to 115.2 in the week ended 1 November 2015. Despite recent moves by the big four banks to raise variable mortgage rates, this week’s result confirms that overall consumer confidence remains on an upward trend, most likely reflecting the increased faith in the new Prime Minister. The four-week moving average is now at its highest level since February 2014. The subindex "economic conditions in the next 12 months" has risen by 5.1 per cent, and is now 25 per cent higher than prior to the change in Prime Ministership.
