Japan Machinery orders for August 2024: -1.9% m/m (expected +0.1%)
globalreutersOctober 15, 20241 Mins read Core machinery orders data from Japan for August 2024, very disappointing indeed.
-1.9% m/m
- expected +0.1%, prior -0.1%
-3.4% y/y
- expected 3.8%, prior 8.7%
Really awful data. About the best that can be said is that this is choppy data set.
