The S&P Global Flash US Manufacturing PMI fell to 52.4 in June 2022 from 57 in May, well below market expectations of 56 and pointing to the slowest growth in factory activity for almost two years as contractions in output and new orders weighed. Production and new sales declined for the first since the depths of the pandemic in mid-2020 driven by weak client demand, as inflation, material shortages and delivery delays led some customers to pause or lower their purchases of goods and were accompanied by a renewed decrease in foreign client demand. On the price front, input prices rose at the slowest since April 2021 and output charges increased the least since January. In line with a renewed fall in backlogs of work, manufacturers expanded their workforce numbers at the softest pace since February. Lastly, goods producers registered the lowest degree of confidence in the outlook for output over the coming year for 20 months in June. source: Markit Economics

United States Manufacturing PMI
In the United States, the Markit Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index measures the performance of the manufacturing sector and is derived from a survey of 600 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.

US Manufacturing PMI Revised Lower: S&P Global
The S&P Global US Manufacturing PMI was revised lower to 57 in May of 2022 from a preliminary of 57.5, pointing to the slowest albeit robust growth in factory activity since January. Production and new orders eased although employment picked up and backlogs of work increased. Meanwhile, the rate of cost inflation accelerated to the fastest in six months, with firms passing on higher expenses to customers through a near-record rise in output charges. Higher operating expenses were commonly linked to hikes in metals, energy, fuel and transportation costs, with some firms mentioning that the war in Ukraine and COVID-19 lockdowns in mainland China had exacerbated surging prices. Also, business confidence fell to the lowest level since October 2020.

US Factory Growth Eases Slightly
The S&P Global Flash US Manufacturing PMI fell to 57.5 in May of 2022 from 59.2 in April, pointing to the slowest growth in factory activity in three months. Still, the reading came in line with expectations and pointed to robust growth supported by strong and steep expansions in output and new orders, alongside a faster upturn in employment and longer supplier lead-times. Also, inflationary pressures remained substantial, with input costs rising at the sharpest pace since November 2021, amid hikes in key components and logistics including; transportation, metals, fuel and cardboard prices. Output charges rose at the third-steepest pace on record as a result. Meanwhile, business sentiment was at the lowest in seven months as hopes of new client acquisitions and greater demand were dampened by inflationary fears.
