1. Economic growth halved to 0.2% (q-o-q) in Q3 as private consumption stayed flat and the manufacturing sector contracted. Gross fixed investment surprised to the upside, jumping by 2.6% (q-o-q) following two consecutive declines. Figures from the Norwegian Statistics Office imply steeper reductions in oil and gas investment in 2017 as companies pause project plans.
