The S&P Global Brazil Manufacturing PMI fell to 51.9 in August of 2022 from 54 in July, pointing to the weakest improvement in the health of the sector since April. Despite being the third successive month of slowdown, it remains above the long-run average of 50.8. New orders rose at the weakest pace in the current six-month sequence of expansion and production also rose the least in six months. Meanwhile, a slower upturn in input costs and upbeat forecasts for output in the medium-term boosted purchasing activity, while companies continued to add to their payrolls. source: Markit Economics

Brazil Manufacturing PMI
In Brazil, the Markit Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index measures the performance of the manufacturing sector and is derived from a survey of 400 industrial companies. The Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index is based on five individual indexes with the following weights: New Orders (30 percent), Output (25 percent), Employment (20 percent), Suppliers’ Delivery Times (15 percent) and Stock of Items Purchased (10 percent), with the Delivery Times index inverted so that it moves in a comparable direction. A reading above 50 indicates an expansion of the manufacturing sector compared to the previous month; below 50 represents a contraction; while 50 indicates no change.

Brazil Factory Growth Remains Robust in June
The S&P Global Brazil Manufacturing PMI was little changed at 54.1 in June of 2022 from 54.2 in May which was the highest reading since September last year. Companies responded to rising sales with further increases in employment, input purchasing and production. Demand strength was centred on the domestic market, with international orders declining again as firms struggled to price competitively in external markets due to elevated cost pressures. Indeed, the rate of charge inflation quickened to a three-month high in June. Meanwhile, Brazilian manufacturers remained strongly confident of a rise in output over the course of the coming 12 months, but overall sentiment slipped to a three-month low in June. Inflation and interest rate concerns dampened optimism.
