The figure of 103.0 in January can be compared with 103.7 in December and 101.5 in November. However, for households this indicates a worse-than-normal mood.

"Households remain pessimistic about their own economy, while the view of the economy in Sweden is close to normal," writes KI.

However, companies' expectations continue to point to higher-than-normal price increases.
