International Reserves in Ukraine

Ukraine - International Reserves
Sequential data hints at a fragile recovery in Q3, after the Covid-19 outbreak and associated lockdown measures pummeled activity in Q2. Industrial output continued to shrink in September, although at a softer pace than in August thanks to less downbeat manufacturing and energy production. More positively, retail sales growth was robust in Q3, which, coupled with steadily firming, albeit still weak, consumer sentiment, bodes well for household spending. That said, the persistent rise in Covid-19 cases, which picked up notably in October, prompted the government to extend the adaptive quarantine system until year-end—raising the possibility of tightening restrictions and thus potentially hampering the recovery in Q4. In politics, the 25 October local elections dealt a setback to President Zelensky given the weak results for his party and declining approval ratings.Ukraine - International Reserves Data
