Chile's leading economic index IMACEC increased 0.1 percent year-on-year in April of 2017, compared to an upwardly revised 0.3 percent growth in the previous month and in line with market expectations. Non-mining sector rose 0.4 percent (from 2.3 percent in March), with the increase in services partially offset by a decline in manufacturing. In contrast, mining sector which accounts for around 14 percent shrank less (-4 percent from -23.2 percent), as work slowly restarted at the country's main copper mine Escondida, after a prolonged strike in the first months of 2017.
