Japan Industrial Output Rises 1.4 Pct in Sept.
Tokyo, Oct. 31 (Jiji Press)--Japan's industrial production in September rose 1.4 pct from the previous month, jacked up by a recovery in the automobile sector, the industry ministry said Thursday.
Production in the sector jumped 7.1 pct after a plunge in August due to a suspension of vehicle factories caused by Typhoon Shanshan.
The seasonally adjusted production index for the manufacturing and mining sectors stood at 101.1 against the 2020 base of 100, the ministry said.
The ministry left its basic assessment unchanged, saying that industrial production is fluctuating "indecisively."
Ten of the 15 surveyed industries logged higher production.
