In the latest Thomson Reuters IPSOS PCSI report, released as of November 13, 2025, Saudi Arabia's Primary Consumer Sentiment Indicator (PCSI) has experienced a slight decline. The index, which reflects consumer confidence, has moved from 71.04 in October to 70.63 in November, marking a marginal decrease in consumer sentiment across the Kingdom.
The month-over-month analysis highlights a subtle yet noteworthy shift in consumer confidence, against the backdrop of previous stability. In October, the indicator registered at 71.04, unchanged from its September figure, suggesting that consumer sentiment had held steady until this recent drop.
While the decline in November’s PCSI figure is fractional, this development calls attention to changing consumer perceptions amidst evolving economic conditions in Saudi Arabia. The reasons behind this subtle dip remain to be thoroughly analyzed, but it underlines the sensitivity of consumer sentiment to both domestic and international economic climates.
