The S&P Global US Composite PMI was revised higher to 47.7 in July of 2022 from a preliminary of 47.5, down from 52.3 in June to signal the first contraction in private sector business activity since June 2020. Despite a decrease in manufacturing new order inflows, total sales rose during July, as service providers signalled a return to growth in client demand. New export orders weighed on overall new business again, as foreign client demand deteriorated. Although still rising markedly, the rate of cost inflation softened to the slowest for six months. Hikes in input prices were linked to higher fuel, transportation, wage and material costs which continued to be passed through to customers. Nonetheless, output charges increased at the slowest pace since March 2021. Private sector firms expanded their workforce numbers at the slowest pace since January. Pressure on capacity eased at service providers, while manufacturers only recorded a slight uptick in work-in-hand. source: Markit Economics

US Business Activity Contracts for 1st Time in Over 2 Years
The S&P Global US Composite PMI registered 47.5 in July, down notably from 52.3 in June to signal a solid contraction in private sector output, flash estimates showed. The rate of decline was the sharpest since the initial stages of the pandemic in May 2020, as both manufacturers and service providers reported subdued demand conditions. New export orders fell for a second successive month and new orders returned to expansion territory but the increase was only modest and, with the exception of June’s decline, was the weakest in the past two years. Challenges retaining employees and some reports of cost cutting initiatives led to the weakest rise in staffing numbers since February. On the price front, the pace of input price inflation eased again from May’s series peak and was the softest for six months, and the pace of charge inflation slowed to the lowest since March 2021. Looking ahead, business confidence among US companies slipped to the lowest since September 2020.

US Private Sector Activity Growth Eases Less than Expected
The S&P Global US Composite PMI was revised higher to 52.3 in June of 2022 from a preliminary of 51.2, down from 53.6 in May, the lowest since January. The slowdown in growth was broad based, with both manufacturing and services seeing weaker increases at the end of the second quarter. Business confidence also waned, dropping to the lowest since September 2020. A weaker expansion in output reflected a renewed contraction in new orders, the first in almost two years. New business was down across both monitored sectors, with new export orders also falling. Rates of input cost and output price inflation remained sharp in June, but eased amid softer demand conditions. The main positive from the latest surveys was a further marked increase in employment, with job creation led by the service sector.
