- increase in interest rates consist

Even if the GDP-growth in 3. quarter at first glance, it is well below the forecasts in the Norges Bank, waiting the expertise of the brokerages that the central bank stands firm in its views on interest rate hikes ahead.

the Growth was weaker than expected by Norges Bank, but the growth in 1. and 2. quarter was revised up and the weak numbers in the 3. quarter was driven by temporary factors such as declines in agricultural production and car sales, printer makroøkonom Jeanette Power Ebb in DNB Markets in an update.

Gonsholt Hov, further shows that employment growth land exactly on Norges Bank's forecast: 0.4 per cent seasonally adjusted in the 3. quarter.

- To insert the look, not to the underlying etterspørselssituasjonen to deviate from expectations.

If anything, it suggests the current figures a cautious approach to further innstramninger in monetary policy, " he continues.
