Canada’s economy declines less than forecast in April
Statistics
Canada announced on Wednesday that the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) fell
0.3 percent m-o-m in April, following a revised 1.3 percent m-o-m advance in March
(originally a 1.1 percent m-o-m increase).
This
marked the first monthly decline in 12 months and was better than economists’
forecast for a 0.8 percent m-o-m drop. Total economic activity remained at
about 1 percent below its pre-pandemic level.
In
y-o-y terms, the Canadian GDP surged 20.0 percent in April.
According
to the report, a decline in services-producing industries (-0.6 percent m-o-m) in
April more than offset a gain in goods-producing industries (+0.5 percent
m-o-m). Overall, 12 of the 20 industrial sectors were down in April.
It was
also reported that preliminary data indicates an approximate 0.3 percent m-o-m drop
in real GDP for May.
