7. What’s the Buzz?
Welcome to the February 2014 edition of ZIndex – our monthly
look at the social conversation about brands and sectors
The month finished positively for some sectors, Food,
Transport, Telecoms and property saw increases in Zindex
scores
The ZIndex for Telecoms actually turned positive for the first
time having come close last month.
We are seeing steep declines in some sectors e.g. Fuel and
Insurance.
