Hakuhodo Institute of Life and Living Announces Consumer Confidence Index for June 2026

The Hakuhodo Institute of Life and Living has released its 'Consumer Forecast for Next Month,' based on a survey of 1,500 men and women aged 20 to 69. The consumer confidence index for June 2026 is 44.1, a slight decrease of 0.9 points from the previous month. Due to the post-Golden Week slump and persistent inflation, consumer frugality is on the rise. Furthermore, consumption intentions for several categories, including travel and interior goods, have declined compared to both the previous month and the previous year, indicating a cautious outlook for consumption.
