Commonwealth Bank releases an intriguing report monthly called the Household Spending Intentions Series (HSI)
CommBank’s Household Spending Intentions series combines the spending data, one of Australia’s largest financial data sources, with Google Trends publically available search activity.
By connecting with advance readings on actual spending data to intentional data, our analysis should provide an early indication of prospective spending trends.
Tracked across seven spending sectors, this analysis can offer a future lens into specific industries.
When these sectors are looked at together, the Household Spending Intentions series provides a holistic view of the changing spending behaviours of Australians and the potential implications for the economy.
