According to CBI data, the amount of manufacturing orders in the U.K. shrank in November as compared to the previous reporting period, Profi-Forex.pro reports. At the same time, analysts are now talking about the high risk that Great Britain’s manufacturing sector may see a further drop in Q4 2015.
In particular, the balance value showed -11%, as stated by CBI in its latest release. However, the latest readings improved from the previous value of -18. Still, it failed to come up to the estimates since the experts had expected -10. At this point, we know that the major reason for the decrease was the fact that the export portfolio saw a decline. 40% of the respondents announced export cuts while only 11% of the respondents reported the opposite dynamics. As the result, the export balance saw the reading of -29%. It should be noted that November has shown the lowest value since January 2013.
