Japan’s Factory Output Higher But Remain Below Expectations

Japan’s industrial output rose 1.5 percent in September from the previous month, official data on Wednesday showed.

The figure was lower than a Reuters forecast for a 1.8 percent increase, but was still a bounce from the 0.9 percent decline in August.

The government also raised its assessment of output for the first time in six months.
