The statistics published earlier were good – the CBI Industrial Order Expectations showed 19 points in June after being 17 points the month before and against the expected reading of 16 points. The actual reading is the highest since 1988.
It’s all about the gradual removal of social restrictions after the coronavirus pandemic. An aggressive vaccination campaign and a slow return to the country’s economy to its normal rhythm help manufacturers and consumers to become more active.
