Consumer caution will limit consumption spending and, as a result, imports in the very near future.
“Faltering goods demand may further harm exports this month, but given the quick easing of COVID limitations, imports may experience a minor recovery from last month.”

As a result of customers’ growing caution, mobility has gotten worse and consumer sentiment has also decreased.
Before the economy starts to show indications of revival, we anticipate further pressure on activity in December and January.”
