Consumption declined for two consecutive months due to social distancing following the re-proliferation of Corona 19.

Sales of semi-durable goods such as clothing decreased by 6.9% compared to the previous month due to restraint from going out and cold weather.

Passenger cars also sold a lot due to the new car effect in October, and sales declined last month due to the base effect.

Industrial production increased by 0.7%, with both mining and service production increased.

The rise in stock prices and real estate prices led to an increase in service industry production such as finance, insurance and real estate.

On the other hand, face-to-face service, the food and lodging industry, declined.

Mining industry production increased by 0.3% due to improved exports.

Semiconductor production increased by 7.2% and electronic parts by 7.4%.

On the other hand, automobile production decreased due to the spread of corona in foreign countries such as the EU.

Facility investment increased by 3.6% as investments continued, mainly in semiconductors and manufacturing equipment, and the actual construction period of construction by construction companies increased by 2.1%.

The government and the National Statistical Office are concerned that uncertainties in the domestic demand sector will increase in December due to the increase in distance.

The cyclical fluctuation of the coincident index and the cyclical fluctuation of the leading index, which are economic indicators, rose together for the sixth month.

It is the longest consecutive rise in 21 years and 3 months, and the National Statistical Office explained that there is a limit to economic prediction as there is an external economic shock of Corona 19.
