“In the first quarter of 2021, 19.6% of households are expected to save over the next 12 months,” HCP said in a briefing note on the results of its recent household survey.
Opinions related to this indicator remained negative (-60.8 points) compared to the previous quarter (-65.8 points), the same source added.
HCP’s note showed that 74.9% of households declared, in Q1-2021, that food prices have risen over the past 12 months compared to 0.8% of households who think the opposite.
Over the next 12 months, 64.0% of households are saying that food prices will continue rising compared to 3.9% of households who predict food prices to fall, the HCP noted.
