The economy lost momentum in Q3 year on year, weighed on by historic floods. The external sector contracted at a steeper pace than in Q2, as the extreme weather event took its toll on the key auto industry. On the domestic front, private consumption swung into contraction, and both public spending and fixed investment growth slowed. Our panel expects growth to have picked up in Q4 on a normalization of activity post-flooding. Retail trade contracted at a softer annual clip in October–November than in Q3 amid two-year low inflation, boding well for private spending. Similarly, the industrial and external sectors averaged only mild contractions in the same period following steep Q3 downturns. In other news, healthcare and judiciary workers went on strike in January over a wage dispute with the government; these pay disputes threaten political stability as government popularity drops.
