The non-oil private sector\u2019s two-month stint in expansion territory has come to an end<\/strong>, with declining demand and weaker output helping drive the trend, according to S&P Global\u2019s latest Purchasing Managers Index report (pdf)<\/a>. Egypt\u2019s headline figure fell 0.9 percentage points to 49.2 in March, down from 50.1 in February<\/a> and below the all-important 50.0 mark is the threshold separating contraction from growth. Despite the fall, the reading \u201cremained higher than its long-run trend, suggesting that businesses are still in a good overall position,\u201d S&P Global Senior Economist David Owen said.<\/p>\n

New orders from both local and international sources fell<\/strong>, leading to local companies to trim spending and reduce operations. Companies also reported a decrease in purchasing activity \u2014 decreasing for the first time in four months \u2014 alongside a reduction in workforce headcounts.<\/p>\n

Input prices rose but at their slowest rate in 58 months<\/strong>, which may suggest that the increasing stability of the EGP against the greenback is helping ease inflationary pressures. The country\u2019s private sector responded to the deceleration of input price inflation by raising prices at the lowest level during the quarter at the slowest pace in four years.<\/p>\n

Not all sectors had a bad month<\/strong>, with the report highlighting that the construction industry witnessed \u201crobust growth in output and new work,\u201d in contrast to manufacturing and retail.<\/p>\n

Businesses are unsure of what lies ahead<\/strong>, with companies\u2019 expected outputs falling to some of the lowest levels reported by the index, which Owen attributes to an unpredictable future ahead for the local economy despite an improved inflation outlook.<\/p>\n
