Italy’s industrial sales decline moderated in November 2025, suggesting tentative signs of stabilisation in the manufacturing and industrial sectors after a sharper setback a month earlier.
Month-over-month data show industrial sales down 0.10% in November 2025, an improvement from October’s 0.60% contraction. The figures, updated on 29 January 2026, indicate that while demand remains under pressure, the pace of deterioration has slowed compared with the previous month.
The month-on-month comparison measures how industrial sales changed in a given month relative to the previous one, with October’s -0.60% reflecting a steeper drop versus September, and November’s -0.10% pointing to a milder pullback from October levels. Investors and policymakers will be watching upcoming releases to see whether November’s softer decline marks the start of a more sustained stabilisation in Italy’s industrial sector.
