In manufacturing the business climate improved markedly in November after six declines in succession. Companies were more satisfied with their current business situation. The decline in demand ground to a halt and inventories fell. Manufacturers were somewhat less sceptical about their six-month business outlook and plan to moderately ramp up production. Assessments of revenue opportunities in foreign markets were also more positive.
