Output rose by 13.4 per cent year-on-year in July. This was slightly below the 13.7 registered in June and significantly down on the 16.5 per cent reading in May. The cooling off in the industrial sector was partly due to a base effect – growth was extremely strong this time a year ago –?and withdrawal of stimulus measures implemented after the financial crisis.Authorities in Beijing who have been trying to slow the housing market, might take heart from the data. There was a sharp slowing in heavy industry output used for construction. Mark Williams from consultancy Capital Economics, said that suppliers to the sector might be anticipating a slowdown as developers delay project starts. But fears that the Chinese government’s plans to shut inefficient production lines in an attempt to meet its year-end emissions targets could de-rail industrial production, might end up being a damp squib, said Williams. He noted that similar directives set by the government had been unsuccessful in the past. KCS-content

The sum of real GDP growth and CPI inflation – a proxy for nominal GDP growth – implies that extra stimulus is not needed to keep inflation on target over time. The MPC is not really gloomy on growth.ANDREW GOODWN | E&Y ITEMAgain the possibility of further QE was debated. But this looks like more of an attempt to present a balanced argument and avoid giving the impression of a bias to tighten, rather than a message that the MPC is moving in that direction. Further QE is only likely to occur if there are clear signs that the recovery is relapsing.VICKY REDWOOD | CAPITAL ECONOMICSWith such big uncertainties surrounding the outlook – none of which are likely to be resolved particularly soon – it therefore looks likely that policy will be kept on hold for a while yet. Further ahead, however, policy is more likely to be loosened further than to be tightened. More QE is likely and at the very least, rates are going nowhere for a long time.

Chief executive Lars Olofsson said in a statement: “Our transformation plan is delivering planned results and makes us confident of achieving our 2010 objectives.” The cautious comments, plus news of an unexpected €69m one-off charge in Brazil, where Carrefour also faces weak hypermarket sales, has kept the shares under pressure. Execution Noble analyst Caroline Gulliver said: “Although figures were in line with expectations, comments from the chief financial officer about the European summer sales took the shine off and it looks as though whilst the French business may be improving, some of Carrefour’s other key markets are deteriorating.” Carrefour, behind only US group Wal-Mart in sales, confirmed that it expected an underlying operating profit of around €3.1bn for the full year, having achieved €1.096bn in the first-half.

It said a further increase in the supply of properties being placed on the market had edged prices lower but at the same time had increased sales expectations.The RICS UK Housing Market survey, released today, showed 32 per cent more chartered surveyors reporting prices falling rather than rising in August – the biggest negative reading since May 2009. Regionally, surveyors are now reporting prices slipping in all regions apart from Scotland. Expectations for house prices over the next three months continue to deteriorate, with 38 per cent more expecting prices to fall rather than rise. RICS spokesperson, Jeremy Leaf said the latest survey suggested house prices may be slipping but surveyors believed sales could begin to pick up as a result. “That said, there can be little doubt that the restrictive attitude to the provision of mortgage finance will continue to limit transaction activity in the market,” he added.

However, the NHS accounts for less than half of Healthcare’s revenues and the present uncertainty in the UK has been partly offset by strong international growth, it said. Bleasdale said trading would improve as the coalition had secured frontline spending. Tags: NULL

Although this represents the “bad” section of the bank, which is being gradually wound down, it is understood the loans are not in default.First round bids are expected to be submitted within the next two weeks.Royal Bank of Scotland declined to comment, though a source with knowledge of the matter said the Edinburgh-based bank had not made any decision concerning the sale of the portfolio.He told City A.M.: “At this stage this is just speculation. The bank hasn’t agreed to any proposals yet.”The three potential bidders were either not immediately available for comment, or could not immediately be reached for comment.It is understood Lazard is also considering setting up a scheme through which more than one buyer could take a stake in the loan portfolio.The move is part of a wider asset sale by the bank, which is 84 per cent owned by the taxpayer after a bailout at the height of the financial crisis.

Reliance is expanding the plant to take advantage of a large recent natural gas find in India’s Krishan Godavari basin. GE expects to ship the turbines in the second half of 2011 to meet Reliance’s deadline of beginning operations at the expanded plant by March 2012, said Paul Browning, a GE vice president.GE expects demand for electricity, and thus turbines, to rise in India as the fast-growing economy exploits the new gas find, Browning said.

COMPETITION to become Alan Sugar’s apprentice may be fierce, but it is nothing compared to the fight to become a BT apprentice.While contestants on the BBC show must fight off just 15 other candidates, graduates hoping to work at the former state telecoms provider have 24,000 to worry about.The demand for places is so high that BT has announced it will double the size of the scheme to more than 400 places.BT apprentices tend to start on salaries between £12,000 and £15,000 with successful candidates specialising in either IT, telecoms, electrical systems or customer service and studying for a BTEC or foundation degree.The new wave of apprentices will be focused on helping BT with its fibre broadband roll out and will be hired by its Openreach business.The news comes as BT celebrates the formal 50th anniversary of its apprenticeship scheme.Demand for the scheme has jumped from 9,000 in 2009 and 11,000 in 2008. BT earlier this year raised the academic threshold for which graduates can apply to be an apprentice. Monday 25 October 2010 8:16 pm whatsapp Tags: NULL Share

Sales of beer in supermarkets and off-licences were down by 12 per cent in the third quarter, while sales in pubs dropped by 7.8 per cent. The latest figures are in stark contrast to those for the second quarter of 2010, in which sales rose by 2.9 per cent – their first quarterly increase for four years. But the latest results show that the industry is still in decline and second quarter results were a blip, caused in part by the World Cup, “As has occurred after every World Cup, the beer market hit a bump in the road, not helped by a wet summer,” said Brigid Simmonds, chief executive of the BBPA.
