Defensive pessimism
30% of Bulgarians Expect 2019 to be Worse than 2018
Bulgaria is among the countries in the world where pessimism prevails over optimism. 30% of Bulgarians expect 2019 to be worse compared to the current year, while 22% believe that the next 12 months will be better.
This is clear from the first and oldest "Global Index of Hope" called "End of the Year". The survey is conducted annually by Gallup International.
