Fed Doing Very Well in Hitting Job, Inflation Mandates
Economy Is Doing Very Well, Should Continue Expansion
This slower growth in productivity reflected the slowdown in business output, while hours worked rose after posting no change in the previous quarter.
Real gross domestic product (GDP) of businesses rose 0.5% in the third quarter, after increasing 0.7% in the second quarter. Output growth in the third quarter was moderated by a decrease in goods-producing businesses (-0.2%), with declines in construction and mining, quarrying and oil and gas extraction. Growth of service-producing businesses (+0.7%) continued at a similar pace as the previous quarter.
Hours worked in the business sector edged up 0.2% in the third quarter, following no change in the second quarter. The 0.5% increase in hours worked in service-producing businesses more than offset the 0.5% decline in goods-producing businesses. Hours worked increased in 9 of the 16 main industry sectors. Arts, entertainment and recreation (+3.1%) and transportation and warehousing services (+1.6%) posted the largest gains. Conversely, agriculture and forestry (-3.7%), real estate services (-1.1%) and the mining, quarrying and oil and gas extraction sector (-1.0%) showed the largest decreases.
Says Production Cut Is Needed
Underlying Price Of Sterling Has Not Factored In High Chance Of A Disorderly Brexit
In October 2018, compared with September 2018, industrial producer prices rose by 0.8% in the euro area (EA19) and by 0.7% in the EU28, according to estimates from Eurostat. In September 2018, prices increased by 0.6% in both zones. In October 2018, compared with October 2017, industrial producer prices rose by 4.9% in the euro area and by 5.4% in the EU28.
The highest increases in industrial producer prices were recorded in Belgium (+3.6%), Italy (+1.8%), Romania (+1.6%) and Slovakia (+1.3%)
Takeaway From Brexit Analysis Is Banks Are Ready
November data pointed to a solid expansion of UK construction output, which was supported by a broad-based upturn in the three sub-categories of activity monitored by the survey. Growth of new work picked up since October and rising client demand underpinned a robust and accelerated expansion of employment. The rate of job creation was the fastest since December 2015. However, business confidence remained relatively subdued, with survey respondents noting that Brexit-related concerns had weighed on their growth projections for the next 12 months.
The seasonally adjusted IHS Markit/CIPS UK Construction Total Activity Index registered 53.4 in November, up from 53.2 in October, to remain above the crucial 50.0 no-change mark for the eighth successive month
The consumer price index (CPI) fell by 0.3% in November 2018 compared with the previous month, reaching 101.8 points (December 2015 = 100). Inflation was 0.9% compared with the same month of the previous year. These are the results of the Federal Statistical Office (FSO).
The 0.3% drop compared with the previous month can be explained by several factors including falling prices for international package holidays and overnight stays in hotels. In contrast, prices rose for diesel and bedroom furniture.

“At its meeting today, the Board decided to leave the cash rate unchanged at 1.50 per cent.
The global economic expansion is continuing and unemployment rates in most advanced economies are low. There are, however, some signs of a slowdown in global trade, partly stemming from ongoing trade tensions. Growth in China has slowed a little, with the authorities easing policy while continuing to pay close attention to the risks in the financial sector. Globally, inflation remains low, although it has increased due to the earlier lift in oil prices and faster wages growth. A further pick-up in core inflation is expected given the tight labour markets and, in the United States, the sizeable fiscal stimulus.
Financial conditions in the advanced economies remain expansionary but have tightened somewhat. Equity prices have declined and credit spreads have moved a little higher. There has also been a broad-based appreciation of the US dollar this year. In Australia, money-market interest rates have declined, after increasing earlier in the year. Standard variable mortgage rates are a little higher than a few months ago and the rates charged to new borrowers for housing are generally lower than for outstanding loans.
The Australian economy is performing well. The central scenario is for GDP growth to average around 3½ per cent over this year and next, before slowing in 2020 due to slower growth in exports of resources. Business conditions are positive and non-mining business investment is expected to increase. Higher levels of public infrastructure investment are also supporting the economy, as is growth in resource exports. One continuing source of uncertainty is the outlook for household consumption. Growth in household income remains low, debt levels are high and some asset prices have declined. The drought has led to difficult conditions in parts of the farm sector”.
