Turkey’s industrial production inched back into positive territory in June 2026, offering a tentative sign of stabilization after a steep drop in the previous month. Month-over-month output rose by 0.10% in June, according to data updated on 10 August 2026.
The modest gain follows a 2.90% contraction in May 2026 on the same month-over-month basis, marking a clear contrast in short-term momentum. The figures compare the change in each reported month to the immediately preceding month, indicating that while the pace of activity remains subdued, the industrial sector has at least halted the sharp decline seen in late spring.
Investors and policymakers will now be watching upcoming data closely to gauge whether June’s marginal improvement signals the start of a sustained recovery in Turkey’s industrial base or merely a brief respite after May’s downturn.
