Japan service sector sentiment improves in Oct
10 November, 2021
Japan's service sector sentiment index rose 13.4 points to 55.5 in October, a Cabinet Office survey showed on Tuesday, as the government eased state-of-emergency curbs last month and new COVID-19 cases plunged to the lowest levels in more than a year.
The index, which was at 42.1 in September, is based on a survey of workers such as taxi drivers, hotel workers and restaurant staff who are called "economy watchers" for their proximity to consumer and retail trends.
