Economic Update | ||||
July MPI Rebounded On Automotive, F&B Gains Thailand’s MPI rebounded to grow by 3.7% YoY in July, as key sectors such as automotive, F&B and rubber & plastics production all grew at close to 10% YoY. However, E&E production slowed, capping some of the gains. Further out, we expect automotive output to ease in coming months on slowing cyclical demand. Meanwhile, newly-introduced immigration restrictions are likely to exacerbate ongoing labour shortages in the fisheries cluster. Economist: Ng Kee Chou | +603 9280 2179 | ||||
