SINGAPORE (Sept 26): Singapore’s factory output plunged in August by the most in almost four years, a sign that the city state’s manufacturing downturn could be deepening.
Industrial production dropped 8% from a year earlier, the weakest since December 2015 and worse than all the forecasts in a Bloomberg survey of economists. It shrank 7.5% on a seasonally adjusted monthly basis, the Economic Development Board said in a statement Thursday.
