Personal income
Personal income
This index is calculated from quite a comprehensive range of sources including data including office workers' salaries, other workmers' earnings, money earned through share dividends, from bank interest on deposits, from social insurance payments, rent incomes and so on. This indicator is usually analyzed together with the Personal Spending Index. It has a limited influence to the market. A change in the index represents a change in the income of the population and thereby a change in buyer concentration. A marked increase in this index leads to the growth of retail sales and to the further growth of the national currency. This indicator is published once after the 20th of every month at 08:30 EST (New York).
