Toename bedrijvigheid rond Philly zwakker

PHILADELPHIA (AFN) - De industriële bedrijvigheid rond de Amerikaanse stad Philadelphia is deze maand iets minder sterk gegroeid. Dat meldt de Federal Reserve van Philadelphia.

De zogeheten Philly Fed-index, die de bedrijvigheid weerspiegelt, kwam voor augustus uit op 18,9, tegen 19,5 in juli. Economen rekenden in doorsnee op een stand van 18,0.

    Wel betere vooruitzichten echter.

    Mid-Atlantic manufacturers reported slightly slower, but still positive, growth in August, according to a report out Thursday.

    The factory activity survey from the Philadelphia Federal Reserve fell to 18.9 from 19.5, the regional bank said. Economists had expected a steeper decline, to 17.0.

    But the report’s details were stronger than the headline. The new orders gauge surged to 20.4 from 2.1, signalling stronger growth in the future, and the measure of shipments jumped to 29.4 from 12.2.

    The two index components that cover labor were mixed. The gauge of number of employees fell to 10.1 from 10.9, while the average workweek rose to 18.8 from 3.8.

    And the “future indexes” component of the report signalled that survey respondents continue to expect growth over the next six months. Most analysts believe the economy has finally pushed through the sluggishness caused by the slump in the oil sector.

    As Joshua Shapiro, chief U.S. economist for MFR, Inc., noted on Thursday, “the preponderance of recent data point to improving conditions in the manufacturing sector, and we expect the underlying trend of reported output to gradually accelerate in the months ahead.”

    On Tuesday, the New York Fed reported that its regional manufacturing survey had touched a near-three-year high.
