Data from the UK overnight for the IHS Markit/CIPS construction Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI)
- It dropped to 43.1
- lowest since April 2009
Pantheon Macroeconomics:
- construction survey "a worrying sign that the damage wrought by Brexit uncertainty is building"
But, add Reuters;
- Construction accounts for only 6% of Britain's economy and economists say the PMI surveys can overstate the degree of turning points in gross domestic product.
Well, OK then …
Should I stick in the nothing to see here disperse gif?
