Roy Morgan Research’s Business Confidence rose 1.1% to 116.2 in October 2016. The small rise in Business Confidence occurred even though the Australian All Ordinaries fell during October – the All Ordinaries ended October at 5,402.40 (down 122.8pts from September 30). However, this fall was concentrated in the last week of the month (the All Ordinaries lost 120.9pts between October 25-31) and has fallen further in early November – now at 5,330.9 (November 7). This month’s small rise in Business Confidence means Business Confidence is now just below the 6yr average (116.6) and slightly below the ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence October rating of 118.5.
