According to the BSP, the figures mean that the number of optimists increased, and was greater than the number of pessimists during the quarter. BSP said the sentiment of businesses in the Philippines mirrored the more bullish business outlook in Australia, Canada, Germany, and Indonesia, but was in contrast to the less favorable views of those in the US, UK, Hong Kong, South Korea, New Zealand and Thailand.
