FX.co ★ Turkey’s Industrial Output Swings Into Contraction in December

Turkey’s industrial production moved into negative territory in December 2025, marking a sharp turnaround from the previous month’s growth. Year-over-year output fell by 2.1% in December, compared with a 2.2% increase recorded in November 2025, according to data updated on 10 February 2026.

The figures are based on annual comparisons, measuring December 2025 activity against December 2024, while the prior reading compared November 2025 with November 2024. The reversal from positive to negative growth underscores a notable loss of momentum in Turkey’s industrial sector at the end of the year, raising questions about the durability of its recent recovery trend.
