Economists had forecast the index to improve to +1.0.<\/p>\n<p>Rolf B\u00fcrkl, GfK consumer expert said the phase of falling incidences has come to an end and the number of infections is rising again.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the dynamism of vaccination has lately decreased significantly despite the availability of sufficient vaccines, B\u00fcrkl added. This is currently preventing a further significant rise in consumer sentiment.  <\/p>\n<p>Among components of consumer confidence, both economic and income expectations recorded moderate losses in July after strong increase in June, while the propensity to buy increased again slightly.<\/p>\n<p>The economic expectations index dropped 3.8 points to 54.6 in July from a 10-year high. Consumers expect the German <span>economy<\/span> to continue growing. Private consumption will increasingly contribute to the positive development, GfK noted.<\/p>\n<p>The income expectations indicator fell 5.1 points to 29 in July. Rising consumer price inflation weighed on income outlook of consumers.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast to economic and income expectations, the propensity to buy increased slightly by 1.4 points to 14.8 in July. <\/p>\n<p>The survey was conducted between July 1 and 12. The results are an excerpt from the study &#8220;GfK Consumer Climate MAXX&#8221; and are based on around 2,000 consumer interviews carried out on behalf of the EU Commission. <\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rttnews.com\/3212617\/german-consumer-sentiment-set-to-remain-stable-in-august.aspx?type=ts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Germany&#8217;s consumer confidence is set to remain unchanged in August as the weakness in economic and income expectations were offset by the improvement in the [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":119263,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
