The S&P Global Germany Composite PMI fell for the fourth month in a row to 51.3 in June 2022 from 53.7 in May, the lowest since the fourth wave of the COVID pandemic in December last year and below market expectations of 53.1, flash estimates showed. Services growth slowed to a five-month low (index at 52.4) amid a waning of demand and some reports of staff shortages, while manufacturing output contracted for the second time in the past three months (index at 49.0). Falling exports acted as a drag, while there were also signs of domestic demand coming under pressure from heightened economic uncertainty and sustained strong inflation. Firms’ expectations towards future activity slumped to their lowest since the first wave of the COVID pandemic over two years ago, with manufacturers growing increasingly pessimistic about the outlook. source: Markit Economics

Germany Composite PMI Unexpectedly Falls in May
The S&P Global Germany Composite PMI was revised lower to 53.7 in May of 2022 from a preliminary of 54.6, pointing to the smallest albeit robust expansion in private sector activity so far this year. The services sector slowed (55 vs 57.6 in April) while manufacturing activity picked up slightly (54.8 vs 54.6). Overall inflows of new business showed the slowest rise for five months, partly reflecting a drag from falling demand for manufacturing goods (particularly from abroad). Employment remained a bright spot, rising strongly and across both monitored sectors. This was despite generally subdued business confidence towards the outlook. On the price front, data showed a further sharp rise in average charges for goods and services, albeit with the rate of increase easing from April's record. Underlying cost inflation also came down slightly but remained elevated.

German Composite PMI Above Forecasts
The S&P Global Germany Composite PMI went up to 54.6 in May of 2022 from 54.3 in April, beating market expectations of 54, flash estimates showed. It marks the 5th consecutive month of growth amid a sustained strong rebound in service sector (PMI at 56.3). Manufacturing output also increased, albeit only slightly (PMI at 51.0), following a decline at the start of the second quarter. There were signs of demand starting to come under pressure from market uncertainty, rising prices and supply issues. Inflationary pressures remained elevated, although rates of both input cost and output price inflation ticked down slightly from April’s record highs. Finally, business confidence towards the year-ahead outlook was the second-lowest in the past two years as businesses continued to voice concerns over rising prices, supply bottlenecks and heightened uncertainty.
