- Prior 1+
- Selling prices +2 vs -3 prior
- Manufacturing expectation 15 vs 16 prior
- Export orders -7 vs -11 prior
Not a good number from the orders but prices picking up will be one for inflation watchers. Improvement in export orders will be welcome. CBI's director of economics, Rain Newton-Smith says the pickup could be from an improvement in the Eurozone but that the strong pound could still provide a challenge
Not a big data point anyway but part of the puzzle nonetheless
