Die heimische Industrie befindet sich nach wie vor in der Rezession. Der WIFO-Konjunkturklimaindex für die Sachgütererzeugung hat sich zu Jahresbeginn zwar stabilisiert, notiert allerdings deutlich im negativen Bereich. Die beiden Teilindizes zur aktuellen Lage und zu den Erwartungen für die kommenden drei Monate legten nur minimal zu. Im Gegensatz zu den anderen Branchen wächst der Tourismus trotz der erheblichen Verteuerung von Hotel- und Restaurantdienstleistungen kräftig. Nach einer Unterbrechung im Dezember setzte sich der Rückgang der Inflationsrate im Jänner fort.

Austria's Industry Remains in Recession
Domestic industry is still in recession. Although the WIFO business climate index for manufacturing stabilised at the beginning of the year, it is still clearly in negative territory. The two sub-indices on the current situation and expectations for the next three months rose only marginally. In contrast to the other sectors, tourism is growing strongly despite the considerable increase in the cost of hotel and restaurant services. After an interruption in December, the decline in the inflation rate continued in January.
