industries: The KDI, however, noted that domestic demand weakened a bit amid the slowing recovery in private consumption and the faltering corporate investment, according to Xinhua China. Affected by the trend, recovery in production eased further except for some industries including the chip sector. The Korea Development Institute KDI said in a monthly report that exports maintained a relatively positive growth on demand for locally-made semiconductors. The country's retail sales gained 4 percent in June, lower than a 4.5-percent increase in the previous month. Production in all industries was unchanged in June from a month earlier, after growing 1.6 percent in May. Consumer sentiment index over economic situations tumbled to 101.0 in July from 105.5 in the prior month.
