September - industrial output down 1.9%

Japan's industrial production in September dropped a seasonally adjusted 1.9 percent from the previous month for the fourth straight month of decline, the government said Friday.
The headline reading compared with an average market forecast of a 0.6 percent fall in a Kyodo News survey.

The index of output at factories and mines stood at 92.5 against the base of 100 for 2005, the Ministry of Economy Trade and Industry said in a preliminary report.

The index of industrial shipments fell 0.7 percent to 95.0 and that of industrial inventories was up 0.2 percent to 97.7.
