Economic Briefing - June 2005

A monthly bulletin examining economic trends for manufacturing, engineering and technology-based businesses.

There has been weakening in manufacturing output in recent months and other sectors of the economy, notably consumer spending, are moderating.  The MPC should continue to keep interest rates on hold but should be ready to reduce rates should the economy weaken further.

In this month's briefing:

  • Inflation
  • Manufacturing Output
  • Housing Market
  • Manufacturing Surveys
  • GDP Growth
  • Business and Consumer Sentiment
  • Manufacturing Forecasts


The next Economic Briefing will be available on 1st July
