Consumer NZ Sentiment Tracker
Tracking New Zealanders’ opinions on a range of issues, the Sentiment Tracker is a nationally representative study.
What do New Zealanders think about the housing market? How do they feel about the state of the economy? Who feels more comfortable about their savings – males or females?
Designed by Consumer NZ and conducted by Dynata, the sentiment tracker grows by 1000 respondents every three months. It is designed to provide a holistic understanding of how New Zealanders feel about a range of issues.
The data presented is a summary of findings, but only represents a small portion of the full survey.
