2026.04.1606:00:00UTC+00UK GDP Rebounds 0.5% in February After Flat January Reading

The United Kingdom’s economy showed signs of renewed momentum in February 2026, with GDP rising 0.5% month-over-month after a stagnant performance in January, according to data updated on 16 April 2026. The latest reading marks a clear improvement from January 2026, when growth registered at 0.0% compared with December.

On a month-over-month basis, the February figure reflects a stronger pace of activity, as the “Actual” comparison measures the change in GDP in February relative to January, while the “Previous” comparison reflects the change in January versus December. With January flat, the February uptick signals that economic output picked up at the start of the year, easing immediate concerns over a potential loss of momentum in the UK economy.
