Consumer confidence in Sweden probably improved to 99.4 in May from 99.0 in the previous month.
The index is based on a monthly survey of households in Sweden. Its purpose is to make a quick qualitative assessment of the plans of households connected to the purchase of new products by exploring the economic situation in Sweden and the state of personal finances. People are also share their expectations about inflation and savings. Data from the survey include the so-called net rates or data showing the difference between positive and negative minded households.
