OTTAWA (Reuters) – Canadian factory sales most likely fell 2.6% in June from May, largely due to the chemical product and transportation equipment subsectors, Statistics Canada said in a flash estimate on Wednesday.
The estimate was calculated based on a weighted response rate of 71.0%. The average weighted response rate for the survey over the previous 12 months has been 94.4%.
