SINGAPORE - Singapore' non-oil exports in October fell 6.1 percent from a year earlier, the smallest contraction so far this year, but weaker than a median forecast by economists for a 0.5 percent rise.
The 12.6 percent drop from the previous month on a seasonally adjusted basis was the biggest drop this year and
was also lower than a median forecast for a 0.7 percent fall.
