The sectoral confidence index, which ranges between 0 to 200, signifies optimism when above 100 and pessimism when below.
Similarly, the services sector also experienced a decline in confidence, registering a 1.5 percent decrease to reach 115.4. This dip suggests a moderated outlook among service providers, possibly influenced by economic conditions and consumer behavior dynamics.
