Consumer Confidence Index
|
|
| Bank Hapoalim’s and TNS Teleseker’s Israeli Consumer Confidence Index declined slightly in October. Bank Hapoalim economists: We estimate that after a period of six months, characterized by a robust economic recovery, we may be standing before a period of stable or slightly lower growth rates. Credit card sales have stabilized in August and September as have the manufacturing sector indexes. |
