Weaker growth in stocks

Total stocks in manufacturing increased in the third quarter of 2008. Signs of decline are however noticed. The transport equipment industry contributes the most to this decreasing growth

Stock volume. Changes in one year

In fixed prices, the total stocks rose by 5.6 cent from the third quarter of 2007 to the third quarter of 2008. A similar comparison in current prices, gives an increase of 9.3 per cent. A new historic top recording of total stocks is recorded in the third quarter of 2008, but a decline in the growth of total stocks can also be seen. Much of this fall off is due to the development in the transport equipment industry.
