2017- n° 5In November 2016, manufacturing bounced back markedly (+2.3%) Industrial production index - November 2016
In November 2016, output bounced back markedly in the manufacturing industry (+2.3% after −0.6%). It also grew sharply in the whole industry (+2.2% after −0.1%).
Please note: all the series are seasonally (SA) and working-day adjusted (WDA).
The commentary shows variations of subsections by decreasing contribution. The contribution of a subsection depends on the extent of the change and on its weight.
In November 2016, output bounced back markedly in the manufacturing industry (+2.3% after −0.6%). It also grew sharply in the whole industry (+2.2% after −0.1%).
Manufacturing output increased by 0.6% over the past three months
Over the past three months, output grew in the manufacturing industry (+0.6% q-o-q), as well as in the overall industry (+0.7% q-o-q).
Output increased in all branches. It rose sharply in mining and quarrying; energy; water supply (+1.9%), in the manufacture of transport equipment (+1.1%) and in the manufacture of food products and beverages (+0.9%). It soared in the manufacture of coke and refined petroleum products (+16.6%). Finally, it went up slightly in “other manufacturing” (+0.2%) and in the manufacture of machinery and equipment goods (+0.5%).
Over a year, manufacturing output decreased (−0.3%)
Manufacturing output of the last three months faltered (−0.3% y-o-y) compared to the same months of 2015; so did overall industrial output (−0.4% y-o-y).
Over the year, output diminished sharply in the manufacture of machinery and equipment goods (−2.1%) and in the manufacture of food products and beverages (−1.4%), and more moderately in mining and quarrying; energy; water supply (−0.8%). It was virtually stable in “other manufacturing” (−0.1%). Conversely, it went up strongly in the manufacture of transport equipment (+2.4%) and, to a lesser extent, in the manufacture of coke and refined petroleum products (+1.0%).

Revisions for October 2016
tableauTableau3a – Revision of variations
| Oct. / Sept. | Sept. / Aug. | Aug. / July | Q3 2016 / Q2 2016 | 2015 / 2014 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Industry (BE) | 0.07 | –0.08 | 0.22 | 0.14 | 0.00 |
| raw serie | –0.05 | –0.05 | 0.07 | 0.03 | –0.01 |

| SA-WDA parameters | 0.06 | –0.05 | 0.17 | 0.12 | 0.00 |
- How to read it: in the manufacturing sector, the SA-WDA variation in output between October 2016 and September 2016 is not revised, as the revision of the raw series (−0.06) is offset by the effect of the update of the SA-WDA parameters (+0.06).
