Both the Manufacturing and Services side of the ISM PMI surveys showed noticeable weakness in June.
The industrial production data posted slow growth for the month of May 2024, with the index rising 0.9% over the previous month, which translates to a 0.4% increase in year over year terms.
This month’s data also shows how important it will be to parse the distinction between the “end of the supply chain resolution disinflation” and growing disinflationary pressure from slackening demand for upstream inputs.
In May, Manufacturing PMIs fell while Services PMIs posted surprisingly strong growth.
Overall, the Q1 GDP print looks weaker overall than the previous print, with investment growth correspondingly weaker.
