Index of orders in manufacturing (discontinued), Q2 2000

Statistics Norway has decided to stop the publication of the Index of orders in manufacturing from the first quarter of 2018. One reason for this was that the statistic previously was a part of Eurostat's regulation for short-term statistics, but this requirement was removed from the regulation in 2012. However, indicators for new orders and stock of orders are available in Business tendency survey for manufacturing, mining and quarrying.

a

The total stock of orders has increased by 2 per cent compared with the same quarter last year. The increase is mainly caused by the export market.

New orders received and unfilled orders. Unadjusted. 1995=100

Basic metals had an upswing in the value of the total stock and were a little bit down for new orders received. In total the new orders received increased by 25 per cent compared with the same quarter last year. The growth was most pronounced for non-ferrous metals, with a 28 per cent higher increase. Higher prices for aluminium, nickel and copper during the last four quarters have been a major contributor to this development.
