Free AccessMNI DATA IMPACT: Retail Powers UK GDP Rebound in January>
By Les Commons and Laurie Laird
LONDON (MNI) - The following are the key points from UK GDP data
published Tuesday by the Office for National Statistics.
- Retail and wholesale trade accounted for the lion's share of an
economic rebound in January, adding 0.15 percentage points to monthly
GDP growth of 0.5%, countering the sharp 0.4% fall in December.
- While services accounted for 0.2 percentage points of monthly
growth and 0.38 percentage points of three-month rolling growth of
0.2%, the financial sector has continued to contract. Financial and
insurance services slipped by another 0.2% between December and January,
the 11th straight month without an increase.
- Auto production slumped by 2.3% in January, and could decline
further ovr coming months following recent announcements of assembly
line closures. Motor vehicle output has now dropped by 7.2% from its
recent peak in the first quarter of 2017.
- The fourth quarter trade deficit was revised lower to Stg9.538
billion, but an ever larger revision to the third quarter shortfall
suggests that net trade could shave 0.3 percentage points from fourth
quarter growth, outpacing the 0.12 percentage point drag contained in
the first estimate of Q4 GDP.
- Construction rebounded smartly in January, jumping by 2.8% over
December, adding 0.17 percentage points to total growth. However,
construction output slipped by 0.6% on a rolling three-month basis, and
could tumble further after poor weather in February.
