Export markets climate index ticks higher in June

The Istanbul Chamber of Industry Türkiye Manufacturing Export Markets Climate Index ticked higher for the second month running in June, registering 50.4 from 50.3 in May, according to a survey on July 8.

Any reading above the 50 no-change mark indicates an improvement in the health of the climate in export markets.

Nonetheless, the latest reading still pointed to only a modest improvement in the export markets climate for Turkish manufacturers, the survey said.

Overall export markets demand conditions have now strengthened on a monthly basis throughout the past two and-a-half years, it added.
