Unemployment in Denmark
Denmark - Unemployment
The economy accelerated in Q4 2018, thanks to solid momentum in the industrial and transport sectors, according to the Statistical Institute’s preliminary GDP estimate. Turning to Q1, the economy appears to be facing mounting headwinds at the start of the year. Business sentiment remained decidedly pessimistic in January, likely mired by uncertainty surrounding Brexit negotiations and future export prospects, while the manufacturing PMI lost ground in the same month on weaker growth in production and employment. In other news, following its first intervention in the foreign exchange market in nearly three years in December, the Central Bank intervened again in January to defend the currency peg after the krone weakened due to feeble international demand. This is likely a first step in the transition towards a normalization of monetary policy.Denmark - Unemployment Data
