BY Reuters | ECONOMIC | 05:05 AM EST

Jan 10 (Reuters) - Greek industrial output rose by 4.9% year-on-year in November, after a revised 2.5% drop in October, data from statistics service ELSTAT showed on Friday.

A breakdown of index components showed manufacturing production rose 0.5% from the same month in 2023. Electricity output was up by 26.1% year-on-year, and mining production was down by 6.7%.

Compared to the same month a year earlier, in November the greatest percentage increase was recorded in mining of coal and lignite, while the highest percentage decrease was recorded in motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers, ELSTAT said.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
