PMI for USA – læs hele meddelelsen her
“US businesses are starting 2025 in an upbeat mood on hopes
that the new administration will help drive stronger economic
growth. Rising optimism is most notable in the manufacturing
sector, where expectations of growth over the coming year
have surged higher as factories await support from the new
policies of the Trump administration, though service providers
are also entering 2025 in good spirits.
“Although output growth slowed slightly in January, sustained
confidence suggests that this slowdown might be short-lived.
Especially encouraging is the upturn in hiring that has been
fueled by the improved business outlook, with jobs being
created at a rate not seen for two-and-a-half years.
“However, rising price pressures are a concern, with companies
reporting supplier-driven price hikes as well as wage growth
amid poor staff availability. Higher input cost and selling price
inflation was broad-based across goods and services and, if
sustained, could add to worries that a combination of robust
economic growth, a strong job market, and higher inflation
could encourage a more hawkish policy approach from the
Fed.”
