Free AccessEuro Area Industrial Production Contracts in June
--EMU June Industrial Production -0.6% vs May rev -0.1%
By Shaily Mittal
LONDON (MNI) - Euro area industrial production eased in June, falling 0.6%
on month, following three months of growth. The decline was in line with
analysts' expectations
Industrial production fell by 0.6% on the month in June in the euro area
following a rise of 1.2% in May (revised down from a rise of 1.3% previously).
Industrial production contracted for the first time since February when it fell
by 0.2% on the month and places Q2 production on a stronger pedestal than Q1.
Across the whole European Union (EU-28), production fell by 0.5% on the month in
June from 1.2% in May.
On an annual basis, production eased to 2.6% in June compared to a year ago
in EA-19, after a slight downward revision of 3.9% in May from 4% previously.
Despite the fall, industrial production remains at a relatively strong footing
and as also indicated by other business surveys, it supports the recovery in the
economies of the Eurozone.
In June, on a monthly basis, EMU production deceleration was predominantly
led by the capital sector, which fell by 1.9% following a growth of 2.2%
(revised down from 2.3% previously). Production of durable consumer goods was
down by 1.2% while that for non-durable goods was down by 0.4%. Intermediate
goods production fell by 0.3% following four months of growth. In contrast,
energy production grew by 1.8% on the month, marking third month of growth.
On a monthly basis, the largest declines in industrial production in the
EA-19 were recorded in Ireland (-7.5%), Malta (-3.2%), with France and Finland
(both at -1.2%). Among the largest nations in the euro area, Germany saw a fall
in production by 1.1%, marking the first monthly decline in 2017.
On an annual basis, industrial production fell by the fastest pace in EA-19
in Ireland (-8.1%) and Malta (-1.3%). Among the largest nations in the euro
area, Germany's growth eased to 2.1% from 4.7% in the previous month (revised
down from 4.8% y/y in May previously). Growth in production in France fell to
2.5% y/y in June from 3.3% (revised down from 3.4% in May previously), marking
the fourth month of expansion.
