World Growth ...

... sluggish.  We only have data for the US and China for May IP, with my estimates for the other countries.  But this is what the 3 month rate of change for world IP (industrial production) looks like:  May slowing somewhat.  Still likely to be revised later, when actual data become available -- and prolly revised down.

The chart shows the percentage change of my indices of industrial production over the same index 3 months ago, not annualised.
