FX.co ★ Latvia’s Industrial Output Grows Faster in May, Signals Gradual Manufacturing Pickup

Latvia’s industrial production edged higher in May 2026, posting a month‑over‑month increase of 0.4%, according to data updated on 6 July 2026. This marks an acceleration from April 2026, when industrial output grew by 0.1% compared with March.

The figures are based on a month‑over‑month comparison, where the current reading reflects the change in May relative to April, and the previous reading captures April’s change versus March. The stronger May performance suggests that Latvia’s industrial sector is gaining some momentum, potentially indicating a modest improvement in manufacturing activity after a subdued start to the second quarter.
