調查顯示:中國4月份消費者信心指數略有下降
Chinese consumer sentiment eased slightly in April, while a range of spending gauges improved thanks to a better outlook for retail sales and consumption expenditure in general, a latest study shows.
一項最新研究表明，在剛剛過去的四月份，中國消費者信心指數有少許地放緩，不過一些相關的消費支出分項指數呈大幅度上升，這主要是歸功於整體的零售和消費前景大致樂觀。The Westpac MNI China Consumer Sentiment dipped 0.3 percent in April to 117.8 from 118.1 a month ago, according to the survey released by Market News International, a unit of the Deutsche Boerse Group.
據德意志交易所下屬的國際市場新聞社發佈的調查表明，今年四月份，西太平洋銀行-MNI中國消費者信心指數從三月份的118.1下降到了117.8，月率下跌0.3%。The pull back in the consumer sentiment was led by a fall in business condition expectations as well as concern about their personal finances, as the expected personal finances indicator fell 1.8 percent to 116.1 in April.
同樣是在四月份，個人經濟狀況預期分項指數月率減1.8%，來到了116.1。對於營業狀況預期走弱以及消費者對於個人財務的擔憂，導致了消費者信心指數的下降。
On the positive side, current personal financial situation indicator climbed to 110.3, the highest level since May 2014. The sub-components for dining out and shopping (leisure spending and durable goods alike) climbed to the highest level since early 2014.
好消息是，現在的個人經濟現狀分項指數攀升至110.3，創2014年5月以來的新高。此外，包括餐飲購物（休閒消費和耐用品消費）在內的次級指標則達到了2014年年初以來的最高點。Optimism over the housing market faded marginally in April with the House Price Expectation component down 3.3 percent to 120.1.
四月份，消費者對房地產市場樂觀情況稍有下降。房價預期分項指數下跌3.3%，放緩至120.1。"The first few months of 2016 have registered a solid lift in sentiment along with increasingly positive readings on housing and spending related components, but weakness in business condition stays and it remains to be seen how well the improved mood is sustained," said Westpac Senior Economist Matthew Hassan.
西太平洋銀行高級經濟師馬修·哈桑對此表示：“2016年開始的這幾個月，消費信心水平有堅實地回升，同時樓市與消費支出指數都有更好的表現。不過像整體商業狀況仍顯疲軟，我們仍然要關注已經有好轉的消費者信心水平是否能維持下去。”
