Turnover
Practice turnover reduced by 3 per cent from September to 167 Index points, the lowest it has been this year since January, but this is 3 per cent higher than October last year.

This month's reduction to 167 Index points is a concern and statistical theory would suggest a break out of a band, above or below, sets the beginning of a new trend.
