Anna Leach, CBI Head of Economic Intelligence, said: “Manufacturers continue to report solid growth in output, while total order books and export order books are holding firm. Expectations for selling prices were largely in-line with the previous month, but price pressures do appear to have moderated somewhat since earlier in the year.”
CBI Industrial Orders Expectations survey showed balance of +7%
Manufacturing firms reported that output growth eased in the three months to September, while expectations for selling prices remained elevated, according to the CBI’s latest monthly Industrial Trends Survey. 24% of manufacturers reported total order books to be above normal, and 17% said they were below normal, giving a balance of +7% - that is below the +13% recorded in August but well above the long-run average of -14%.
