Output of the national economy declined in October

Seasonally adjusted output fell by 0.4 per cent in October from the month before. Adjusted for working days, output was 1.8 per cent lower than one year before. According to revised data, working-day adjusted output decreased in September by 1.6 per cent (previously -2.6 per cent) from September 2014. The revision is caused by the benchmarking of the data to quarterly accounts.

The series of the Trend Indicator of Output are seasonally adjusted with the Tramo/Seats method. The latest observations of the series adjusted for seasonal and random variation (seasonally adjusted and trend series) become revised with new observations in seasonal adjustment methods. Revisions especially at turning points of economic trends may be significant, which should be taken into consideration when using seasonally adjusted and trend data.
