Japan’s industrial production fell 0.2% month over month in July 2026, missing a flash estimate for 0.1% growth and reversing June’s 1.9% increase. The decline, the first since March, came amid external uncertainties and uneven global demand; annual output still rose 3.9%, extending growth to a second consecutive month. Jordan’s industrial output increased 1.2% year-on-year in July, reversing a 1.3% decline in June, while monthly production climbed 4.6%.
