ANZ-Roy Morgan Australian Consumer Confidence edged down 0.9% to 116.4 in the week ending 12 February 2017. The decrease was driven primarily by declines in sentiment toward both financial and economic conditions over the next 12 months. Households’ views of their current finances improved by 1.0%, whereas sentiment towards future finances fell by 1.8%. Both indicators remain well above their long run averages. Households’ views of economic conditions over the next 12 months deteriorated by 3.8%, partially unwinding the 5.7% bounce over the previous two weeks. Sentiment regarding economic conditions over the next five years edged down 0.7% after a solid 4.7% in rise the previous week.
