Abrupt Changes in Slovenia's Economic Trends at the Beginning of the Year

Ljubljana, 20 March - Spending trends in Slovenia saw abrupt changes at the beginning of the year, as trade in January was solid, but most likely declined in February, according to the Economic Trends, a bulletin of the Economic Institute of the Ljubljana Faculty of Law.
