Austria: Industrial output records largest decline in over two years in December

Industrial output plunged 5.3% in month-on-month seasonally adjusted terms in December, which contrasted November’s 0.7% increase. December’s downturn marked the worst reading since April 2020.

Furthermore, production contracted in both the capital goods, and non-durable consumer goods sub-sectors.
