WRI’s assessment

Israel’s Logistics Growth Index rose 0.1 MoM to 48.9 in July, remaining in contraction but improving from the prior month as regional conflict eased and the central bank delivered a second consecutive rate cut. The recovery was primarily driven by a rebound in business volume and rising goods for sale, supported by strong import growth and post-conflict restocking.
