Consumer confidence by country

Every economy Bullrun holds a reading for: 40 in all, ranked highest first. Costa Rica is the highest at 103.7 and Estonia the lowest at 94.6; the median is 99.1. Each row carries its own period and source, because these providers publish on different calendars - two rows in this table can be more than a year apart.

Consumer confidence by country, ranked

How the scale reads

These are the same bands that shade the map on the Global Markets dashboard, so a country's colour there and its band here always agree.

What this measures

Consumer confidence for 40 economies, on the same index as the business measure, where 100 is that country's own long-run average. The two disagree often and usefully: firms and households read different things, and a gap opening between them tends to come before a turn. Soft data, like the business measure - sentiment, not activity.

Source: OECD composite leading indicators, monthly. Coverage differs from metric to metric because these providers cover different sets of economies, and a gap is left as a gap rather than filled from a proxy - an absent economy is one we hold no reading for, never a zero. See the data license.
