Household Consumption MoM measures the month-over-month change in the total inflation-adjusted value of all goods and services purchased by households. As consumption is the primary driver of GDP in most developed nations, this indicator is vital for assessing economic momentum. It covers everything from essential groceries to luxury services and durable goods.
The calculation involves surveying a representative sample of households or using retail and service sector sales data to estimate total spending. The result is adjusted for seasonal variations and price changes to reflect real consumption growth.
