In the second quarter of 2021, CCI is at the same level as the same period in the previous year. The current situation index has slightly increased, while the expectation index has fallen. Weak confidence in job availability in the near future caused a decrease in the expectation index.

In the second quarter of 2021, the demand for durable goods is considerably lower than the average level in 2020. The demand is also smaller compared to the same period of 2020. This reduction is mainly driven by a decrease in the demand for major appliances and furniture and automobile.
