Consumer Confidence Index

The Consumer Confidence released by the Cabinet Office captures the level of sentiment that individuals have in economic activity. A high level of consumer confidence stimulates economic expansion while a low level drives to economic downturn. Normally, a result above 50 is positive (or bullish) for the JPY, whereas a result below 50 is seen as bearish.
