Financial anxiety in Russia: down 10.7 points
Financial anxiety in Russia on October 25, 2020: 63.4 out of 100, in the “Elevated interest” zone. The previous reading, on October 18, 2020, was 74.1: the index fell sharply by 10.7 points. That meets our shift threshold of 10 points; the zone did not change. The “Elevated interest” zone covers readings from 55 to 75: searches on the topic are above usual. The index has now spent 2 weeks in a row in this zone. Biggest component moves: “Searches about the dollar rate” at 66.8 versus 84.4 and “Searches about devaluation” at 75.2 versus 89.2. This describes that date's reading; it is not a forecast.
