In October, the industrial production volume in China increased by 5.9% (year-to-year), which is higher than the expected 5.8%.<\/p>\n

The demand for the pound is significantly higher. Great Britain and the European Union reached the preliminary agreement regarding Brexit after long negotiations. Germany published weak GDP reports.
