A release of two halves in the monthly UK GDP. The good news is v decent growth of 0.7% QoQ in the three months to August.. BUT all the growth in June & July. Growth stalled in August - consistent with a wider basket of activity data.

#GDP figures show #construction growth was better in Q3. Up by 2.3% on Q2, fastest rate of quarterly growth since Q1 2017 ons.gov.uk/economy/grossd…

In October 2018, the value of new construction contracts was 3.8% lower than September & 23.5% lower than a year ago. Half of the contracts in October were residential (40%) or industrial warehouses (10%). Michael Dall in @BarbourABI. #ukconstruction barbour-abi.com/wp-content/upl…

The value of construction contracts in October was still higher than in the 1st half of 2018 but it has been falling since August & given the current uncertainty expect to see further falls in new contract awards (except for housing & warehouses) in November.
