Both output and new orders decreased for a second month<br \/>\nrunning as demand weakness remains particularly evident in export markets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">The supply-side also<br \/>\nremained problematic for businesses, as delivery times<br \/>\nlengthened to the greatest degree in almost four years. That being said, price pressures eased slightly so that&#8217;s a bit of good news.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">S&amp;P Global notes that:<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">&#8220;Export customers continued to demonstrate a lack of interest<br \/>\nin French goods, with new orders from abroad decreasing<br \/>\nat a solid and slightly quicker pace. All three main industrial<br \/>\ncategories recorded lower demand from international clients<br \/>\nduring June.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">A major obstacle facing French manufacturers in June was<br \/>\non the supply-side, with the latest survey data signalling<br \/>\nthe most intense delivery delays in nearly four years. Poor<br \/>\ntransport availability was often cited, in addition to shortages<br \/>\nand stretched supplier capacity. The respective sub-index<br \/>\nmeasuring supplier performance was a key contributor to the above-50.0 reading of the headline PMI, despite its relatively<br \/>\nsmall weight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">Regarding pricing conditions, June survey data continued to<br \/>\nsignal elevated inflation rates for both input costs and output<br \/>\ncharges. Higher prices paid for chemicals and other oil-based<br \/>\nproducts, packaging and transportation were mentioned<br \/>\nanecdotally, with many companies choosing to pass at least<br \/>\nsome of the burden on to their clients through increased<br \/>\ncharges. That said, selling fees were raised to a slower<br \/>\nextent and cost pressures cooled for the first time since last<br \/>\nDecember.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>                            This article was written by Justin Low at investinglive.com.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Final manufacturing PMI 51.2 vs 50.7 prelim Prior 49.7 The final estimate is revised higher but the better reading in June comes with a bit of a caveat (as highlighted in bold&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":216,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[86],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-433069","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.swingfish.trade\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/433069","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.swingfish.trade\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.swingfish.trade\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.swingfish.trade\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/216"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.swingfish.trade\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=433069"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.swingfish.trade\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/433069\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.swingfish.trade\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=433069"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.swingfish.trade\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=433069"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.swingfish.trade\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=433069"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
