Confindustria: 'Economic activity declines again in January' - Breaking news. The Real Time Turnover Index of the Confindustria study centre, which tracks the dynamics of the volume of economic activity in Italy, based on companies' electronic invoicing data.

"The overall decline - explain the economists on Via dell'Astronomia - is due to construction, in the face of positive data for services and industry", says the study centre. The index "indicates, therefore, that the first quarter of the new year opened with a decline, reducing the already rather limited positive drag inherited from 2023"
