Tuesday’s session had few major macroeconomic releases. In Spain, industrial production in January contracted and confirms the weakness of the sector. Industrial sector activity fell by -0.9% on a monthly basis, which means that in year-on-year terms industrial production fell by -0.4% compared to +0.7% in the previous month. This negative figure confirms that the rise in production costs and the lower demand continue to punish the industrial sector.
