12월 소비심리 전월대비 8.1p 하락 ...코로나19 3차 유행에 따른 영향
South Korea's consumer sentiment dipped sharply in December due to the third wave of COVID-19 infections across the country.
According to the Bank of Korea on Tuesday, the composite consumer sentiment index was at 89-point-eight...down eight-point-one points on-month.
The BOK attributed the fall to strict social distancing measures imposed to contain the spread.
This month's reading remains below the 100 threshold, meaning people are still more pessimistic than optimistic about the economy.
