Consumer confidence plunges to 35 year low

JOHANNESBURG – 
Consumer confidence plunged to record lows in 35 years during the second quarter of 2020 due to the halt in economic activity in the three months to June. 
The FNB/BER Consumer Confidence Index (CCI) on Tuesday plummeted from an already depressed level of -9 in the first quarter of 2020 to a shocking -33 during the second quarter.
The latest CCI reading is now only 3 index points shy of the all-time lowest consumer confidence level of -36 recorded in 1985.
