The latest
survey by the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) revealed on Thursday the
UK manufacturers' order books worsened in January, reversing December’s strong
improvement.
According to
the report, the CBI's monthly factory order book balance decreased to -38 in January from -25 in the previous month. Economists had forecast the reading to
come in at -35.
The CBI also
reported that output volumes in the three months to January were broadly flat,
following 15 consecutive months of drops (-2 from -6 in December). However, it was expected that output would decline once again in the next quarter (-24).
In other survey
results, average cost growth in the quarter to January (+34) accelerated to its
quickest pace since July 2018 (+36). Cost inflation was also forecast to
accelerate further in the next quarter (+55), marking the highest expectations
since July 2008 (+58). Meanwhile, average domestic prices grew in the quarter
to January (+7) at their quickest pace since April 2019 (+11) and were seen to grow at a broadly similar rate next quarter (+4).
“Output was broadly flat in this month’s
quarterly survey, with the picture varying in different sectors. Manufacturers
across the board are continuing to battle major headwinds, with domestic and
export orders notably falling”, noted Rain Newton-Smith, CBI Chief Economist. “With
growing costs and materials shortages mounting further pressure on firms at a
time when they’re experiencing much less demand, the Government must avoid
tapering off existing business support with a cliff edge in March.”
Meanwhile, Tom
Crotty, Group Director at INEOS and Chair of the CBI Manufacturing Council,
said: “While the start of 2021 is challenging, the COVID-19 vaccine drive
brings with it a real sense of optimism for the future. The manufacturing
sector can be an engine for UK’s economic recovery post-covid and firms are
keen to work with government to make this happen. In the meantime however, it’s
essential that the sector receives the support it needs to get through the next
few critical months."

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
