S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Brazil\u2019s industrial output climbed for the seventh month in a row, up 1.2% in November from October 2020. But year to date through November, it was down by 5.5%. In the twelve months through November, it declined by 5.2%. Despite the recent positive outcomes, industrial output is down 13.9% from the peak in May 2011.<\/p>\n
Figures from the Monthly Industrial Survey made public on Friday (8) in Rio de Janeiro by statistic agency IBGE shows that the industry was up 2.8% from November 2019.<\/p>\n
IBGE said that all categories were up from October, particularly capital goods (7.4%) and consumer durable goods (6.2%). Non- and semi-durable goods (1.5%) and intermediate goods (0.1%) were also up in November, reversing the fall in the previous month.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe auto sector remains as the major driver of Brazil\u2019s industry. Up 11.1% from October following a fall trend in the critical months of the pandemic, the sector posts a 1,203.2% increase in the seven months through November, over the 0.7% level in February,\u201d IBGE said.<\/p>\n
The institute said the growth is reflected in other sectors, too, as the vehicle production influences activities such as steelwork and chemicals. Both were up in November, by 1.5% and 5.9% respectively.<\/p>\n
Other activities that contributed to November\u2019s results were apparel (11.3%), machinery and equipment (4.1%), printing and reproduction media (42.9%), leather goods, travel goods and footwear (7.9%), beverages (3.1%), metal products (3.0%), and other transport equipment (12.8%).<\/p>\n
Among the nine activities to experience a decline in November, the top negative impacts were foodstuffs (-3.1%), reaching a 5.9% decrease in the two months through November; extractive industries (-2.4%), down 10.4% in the three months through November, and pharma products, down 9.8%.<\/p>\n
