Despite New Zealand's relatively healthy growth and prospects (subject, of course, to international events over which we have no control) business confidence continues to fall. 

Business confidence, of course, is only one economic indicator —and a not very robust one at that— of how the economy is faring, and likely to fare over the next 12 months.
