The economy gained momentum in Q3, expanding 8.4% in January–September, compared to January–June’s 8.1% increase. Industrial production growth accelerated notably, fueled by an improvement in manufacturing production. In addition, agricultural output grew at a faster pace in the nine-month period from H1. Moreover, exports of goods and services rose faster in January–August compared to the first half of the year, pointing to sturdier external demand. That said, stronger price pressures in Q3 weighed on household budgets, with retail sales decelerating from the previous quarter. Moreover, fixed investment decelerated in Q3 from H1 levels. In other news, in mid-October, rail operators from China, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan held their first meeting on a new railway project linking the three countries, which would reduce reliance on Russia.
