The Czech Republic's industrial output growth accelerated somewhat in April, while its trade surplus decreased sharply from last year, separate reports from the Czech Statistical Office revealed on Monday.
Industrial production rose a working-day-adjusted 1.5 percent year-on-year in April, faster than the 0.9 percent increase in March.
The acceleration in growth momentum was largely driven by a 1.8 percent expansion in the manufacturing output, followed by a 0.9 percent recovery in utility sector production. Meanwhile, the mining and quarrying industry logged a sharp contraction of 12.9 percent.
