Very good numbers from UK industry. We've already seen that the year could be ending well in manufacturing via the Dec PMI. This one lags those by a month so we should (on paper) see this sustained.

Oil and gas production led the way and a lot of the gains are being tied to the reopening of the Buzzard oil field and an increase in the pharma sector.
