China's industrial output rose at a faster-than-expected rate of 7.3% in December from a year ago, data showed on Monday, expanding for the ninth straight month as the vast manufacturing sector, aided by strong exports, continues its post-COVID recovery. Analysts polled by Reuters had expected annual industrial output growth to have eased to 6.9% in December from 7.0% in November. China's retail sales edged up 4.6% last month from a year earlier, missing analysts' forecast for 5.5% growth, in contrast to 5.0% growth in November.
China's economic recovery beat analyst expectations in the fourth quarter, expanding 6.5% from a year earlier, data from the National Bureau of Statistics showed on Monday. The gross domestic product (GDP) growth was faster than the 6.1% forecast by economists in a Reuters poll, and followed 4.9% growth in the third quarter. GDP grew 2.3% in 2020, the data showed, making China the only major economy in the world to avoid a contraction last year as many nations struggled to contain the COVID-19 pandemic.
(Bloomberg) -- Libya’s oil output has dropped by about 200,000 barrels a day after the closure of a leaking pipeline, underscoring how difficult it is for the country to maintain its production following almost a decade of civil war.The OPEC member’s output has fallen to around 1 million barrels daily in the wake of Waha Oil Co.’s decision to shut the pipeline taking crude to the eastern oil port of Es Sider, the country’s biggest. State-owned National Oil Corp., which controls Waha and made the announcement late Saturday on Facebook, said the repairs could take two weeks, though it hopes they can be completed in half that time.The pipeline “could no longer continue to operate due to the large number of leaks, and it’s worn out,” the NOC said. “What happened with Waha today happens daily with other companies that suffer from a budget shortage. They are also under the threat of having to reduce their production and to even halt it completely.”Libya’s daily production surged to 1.25 million barrels this month from almost nothing in September after a truce between rival military forces. That caused problems for the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies, which are restricting supply to bolster oil prices following their coronavirus-triggered collapse last year. Due to its strife, Libya is exempt from the curbs.The country’s been at war for much of the period since former leader Moammar Al Qaddafi was toppled in 2011. The Tripoli-based government, which is recognized by the United Nations, and the self-styled Libyan National Army, led by Khalifa Haftar, stopped fighting around June.Yet their forces are still encamped near the central city of Sirte and thousands of foreign mercenaries are present throughout the country. The two sides are trying to form a unity government to run Libya until elections scheduled for December.While Libya has Africa’s largest crude reserves, the NOC is struggling to fix oil fields, storage tanks, pumping stations, pipelines and ports. Some have been damaged, while others are corroding because of neglect. The NOC said it lacks the money to carry out the repairs.For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.

Just like so many painful playoff losses in their past, the Browns came up achingly short - inches from a game-swinging play, inches from a last chance. Cleveland's turnaround season ended Sunday in heartbreak. Unable to take advantage of Kansas City superstar Patrick Mahomes being out with a concussion, the Browns let backup quarterback Chad Henne make two huge plays in the final two minutes and lost 22-17 in the divisional round.
The fact Reid had backup quarterback Chad Henne, in for the concussed Patrick Mahomes, throwing to Tyreek Hill in the flat to clinch the victory added yet another element of suspense. ''We go through all those Saturday night with the quarterbacks, those situations: 'Fourth-and-1 to win the game, what do you want?''' said Reid, who never once thought about punting on fourth down. The Eagles led New England by three points approaching halftime in the Super Bowl for the 2017 season.

(Bloomberg) -- Oil extended losses in Asia on a stronger dollar and a still-surging coronavirus after slumping the most in almost four weeks on Friday following the release of disappointing U.S. economic data.Futures in New York fell below $52 a barrel after tumbling 2.3% on Friday. The dollar held gains Monday after advancing last week, reducing the appeal of commodities like oil that are priced in the currency. U.S. consumer sentiment, producer prices and retail sales all missed estimates, highlighting the obstacles facing the world’s largest economy as it recovers from the virus.Covid-19 continues to spread rapidly, meanwhile, complicating the global recovery in energy demand. The U.S. is on track to reach 400,000 deaths before President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration on Wednesday, while the U.K. is closing its travel corridors with countries around the world as cases spike.Crude still managed to eke out a small gain last week, helped by a rebalancing of commodity indexes and the promise of more U.S. stimulus spending. However, the rally that started in early November and has pushed oil to the highest in almost a year looks to be stalling amid a worsening short-term demand outlook.The dip in prices on Friday was a “breather” for a market that has rallied almost 10% since the start of the year, said Howie Lee, an economist at Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp. “Biden’s inauguration will be the focus of markets this week, particularly on how quickly he can roll out his fiscal stimulus plans.”Libya’s oil output, meanwhile, has dropped by about 200,000 barrels a day after the closure of a leaking pipeline. The decline underscores how difficult it is for the country to maintain production after almost a decade of civil war.See also: President Biden Won’t Unlock a Wave of Iranian Crude: Julian LeeThe worsening short-term outlook is being reflected in oil’s futures curve. Brent’s prompt timespread is 1 cent a barrel in contango -- a bearish structure where near-dated prices are cheaper than later-dated ones -- after being as much as 16 cents in backwardation earlier in the month.For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2021 Bloomberg L.P.
