Consumer sentiment index in Australia from August 2019 to July 2020

Since August 2019, consumer sentiment in Australia has experienced something of a decline, with an index score of 87.9 recorded in July 2020. Part of this decline can be attributed to the Covid-19 pandemic, which led to business disruption and more than 1.5 million job losses by May 2020. More recently, a second outbreak in June prompted Victoria's government to re-enact local lockdowns across a number of regions in the state.

自2019年8月起，澳大利亚消费者情绪经历了一段显著的下滑，2020年7月记录的指数得分为87.9。此次下滑的部分原因可归因于新冠疫情的爆发，该疫情导致了商业中断，并在2020年5月之前造成了超过150万个工作岗位的流失。近期，6月份的第二次疫情暴发促使维多利亚州政府在该州多个地区重新实施局部封锁。
