景気動向指数、１．７ポイント上昇　２カ月ぶり改善―９月

　内閣府が８日発表した９月の景気動向指数（２０２０年＝１００）速報値は、景気の現状を示す一致指数が前月比１．７ポイント高い１１５．７となった。８月に台風１０号の影響で自動車工場が稼働停止するなどした反動が主因で、２カ月ぶりの改善。基調判断は「下げ止まりを示している」に据え置いた。（2024/11/08-17:46）

Japan's composite index of coincident economic indicators in September rose 1.7 points from the previous month, reflecting a recovery in production at automobile plants disrupted by a typhoon in August, the Cabinet Office said Friday.
   The coincident index, which reflects current economic conditions, stood at 115.7 against the 2020 base of 100, after a 3.2-point drop in August, the government agency said in a preliminary report.
   The Cabinet Office kept its basic assessment unchanged, saying that the index is showing signs of bottoming out.
   Five of the eight component indicators available in the preliminary report made positive contributions to the index. Auto production and shipments grew, overcoming the impact of the typhoon. Suspensions of steel shipments were also resolved.
   Air conditioner production and shipments were also brisk, on the back of heat waves. By contrast, retail sales declined.
