Indian industrial output surges, beats forecasts
AFP, New Delhi
India's industrial output jumped by a better-than-expected 9.1 percent in September from a year earlier, data showed Thursday, fuelling hopes Asia's third-largest economy was firmly on the mend.
Industrial output was underpinned by robust con sumer spending in September during the religious festival season, as well as by government stimulus and interest rates at record lows.
Manufacturing output, which accounts for 80 percent of the index, grew by 9.3 percent in September from a year earlier. Mining rose by 8.6 percent and electricity produc lion expanded by 7.9 percent.
Economists liad been betting that industrial produc tion would increase by around seven percent after output grew by six percent in the same month the previous year.
Production slowed in September from an 11 percent rise the previous month, but the double-digit rise in August had been partly spurred by a sharply lower year-earlier base effect.
Production of consumer durables, particularly hard hit as India suffered the fallout from the global financial crisis, grew by 22.2 percent in September.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said earlier in the week the government would start next year to unwind stimulus measures put in place to shield the economy from the impact of the international slump.
Chinese premier says loose monetary policy to continue
AFP, Beijing
China wall stick to a loose monetary policy, Premier Wen Jiabao reiterated Thursday, despite mounting evidence the world’s third largest economy has rebounded strongly from the global crisis.
"China's economic recovery trend has continued to consolidate but it still faces a few difficulties and problems," Wen told a forum here on the 2010 World Expo to be held in Shanghai.
"We will continue to implement the active fiscal policy and moderately loose monetary policy... to facilitate the fast and steady growth of the Chinese economy, he said, according to a transcript of his speech posted on the Shanghai Expo's website.
Wen's remarks were consistent with those made by several senior officials recently and came a day after official data for October showed the economy was on track to exceed the government’s eight percent growth target for 2009.
China's recovery from the global crisis has been driven by a four-trillion-yuan (585-billion-dollar) stimulus package unveiled last year and aggressive bank lending - sparking speculation Beijing would soon move to tighten policies.
S Korea freezes key interest rate for 9th month
AFP, Seoul
South Korea's central bank Thursday froze its key interest rate at a record low 2 percent for a ninth month, saying uncertainties such as the spread of swine flu could still affect growth.
At its monthly policy meeting, the Bank of Korea left the benchmark seven-day repo rate unchanged.
It had cut the rate by a total of 3.25 percentage points between October 2008 and February in a bid to slow down a sharp economic downturn.
It has recently been more evident that economic activity is in a recovery phase, ” the bank said in a statement.
“The Korean economy is likely to continue to maintain its positive on-quarter growth as the global economy is improving and inventories are being restocked, but uncertainty for growth persists due to factors like the spread of Influenza A."
The central bank said it would maintain its accommodative policy stance for the time being by focusing on sustaining the recovery. It took a cautious stance despite a recent series of positive economic numbers.
Australia unemployment rises to 5.8pc
AJ P, Sydney
Australian unemployment rose last month as growing confidence saw job-seekers return to the market, data showed Thursday, but the government warned of a further rise as stimulus money wore off.
The only advanced economy to avoid recession in the global downturn, Australia has seen its jobless figure hold steady since May helped by multi-billion dollar government pump-priming measures.
Data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) showed the country's unemployment rate edged up to 5.8 percent from 5.7 percent in October.
It said 24,500 extra jobs were created, although that was outstripped by a surprise jump of 35,000 in the number of people looking for work.
The modest rise back to August jobless levels reflected a fairly consistent picture of employment since May, said AMP Capital Investors chief economist Shane Oliver.
