Colleagues,
It has been a while since I’ve written to you. I’m pleased to be able to keep you informed of the key activities at Headland and our reading of the manufacturing marketplace.
The Australian PMI rose by one point up to 49.7, up from 49.6 in April. The PMI is reflecting similar levels to that in July 49.6 and August 49.6 last year. As the PMI is remaining below 50, it signals continuing challenges overall in manufacturing. Nonetheless, this month, exports rose for the first time since 2022, whilst some manufacturers have advised us that you expect better market conditions in the coming months.
In New Zealand, the market continues to contract, down from April (48.9) to 47.2. This is the 14th month of contraction in the manufacturing market. Production is down, along with new orders, while employment has improved along with more positive market commentary. The negative commentary was around the recessionary conditions and the challenges it brings.
