Key Quotes:

"UK industrial production data reflected better overall output and manufacturing trends but disappointing construction data for Sep (bottom chart). UK trade data reflected a narrower deficit for the Sep month after very weak numbers in Aug. Brexit talks will not lead to a deal in the short run, the EU’s negotiator said earlier; but a deal by Dec remains the objective. Positive headlines today do not remove either of the near-term political risks around a weakened prime minister or the longer run economic threats posed by Brexit."
