Such sentiment is up 30 percentage points in Japan from the low point in 2012; up 23 points from the low in the US in 2009; and up 23 points from the low in 2013 for the median of five European Union nations.

This modest recovery in public economic sentiment parallels a gradual pickup in economic growth in many of these economies," it said.
