WELLINGTON (Reuters) - Consumer confidence in New Zealand fell in the second quarter as households have become increasingly nervous about the economic outlook, a survey showed on Monday.
The Westpac-McDermott Miller consumer confidence index fell to 106.0 in the June quarter from 109.6 in the previous quarter. A reading above 100 indicates more optimists than pessimists.
