UK Factory Output Falls: CBI
The Confederation of British Industry's order book balance fell to -7 in the three months to August of 2022 from 8 in July, and compared to market forecasts of 3. The reading pointed to the first decline in industrial output since April of 2021, with no growth expected in the three months ahead. Export orders remained subdued (-12 vs -12), domestic price expectations increased (57 vs 48) and output expectations declined (-2 vs 6). "From rising prices to bottlenecks in supply chains, manufacturers continue to operate against a background of high input costs and significant operational delays. When coupled with an oncoming economic downturn, it’s not surprising to see orders and activity ebb away as we move through the year", Alpesh Paleja, CBI Lead Economist, said.

At the same time, domestic price growth is seen slowing (+48 vs +58). “The manufacturing sector has been an economic bright spot in recent months, but output and orders have softened amid ongoing cost pressures, supply challenges and a generalised weakening in economic conditions both in the UK and globally. It is encouraging, however, to see investment intentions firming", Anna Leach, CBI Deputy Chief Economist, said.
