Our non-oil private sector saw a modest pickup in May activity \u2014 but <\/strong>selling-price inflation surged to its second-highest reading in the survey\u2019s history<\/strong>, confirming that the cost restraint of March and April was unsustainable, S&P Global Market Intelligence's David Owen says in S&P Global\u2019s latest report (pdf)<\/a>. The headline PMI reading nudged up to 47.1 from April's 37-month low of 46.6<\/a> \u2014 a fifth straight month below the 50.0 growth threshold.<\/p>\n

The input cost picture got worse, not better.<\/strong> Prices surged at their fastest pace since January 2023 on more expensive diesel and electricity, a weaker EGP, and the sharpest wage pressures since early 2018. Nearly half of all surveyed businesses reported rising costs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe principal move was an historic surge in selling charges, with the rate of output price inflation reaching its second-highest in the survey's history<\/strong>,\u201d Owen notes. New orders fell for the fifth straight month as inflation-wary customers kept their wallets shut. Output shrank sharply in wholesale, retail, and services, with only manufacturing and construction showing slight signs of a rebound.<\/p>\n

Firms are bracing for more. <\/strong>Companies are hoarding inventories at the fastest rate in almost three years as a hedge against future price hikes. Supply chain disruptions also lengthened delivery times at the fastest pace in nearly four years.<\/p>\n

Jobs are the casualty.<\/strong> Firms shed positions at the fastest pace since June 2020, actively laying off workers and leaving vacant roles unfilled.<\/p>\n

Why it matters:<\/strong> The reading points to a softer 2Q 2026 GDP figure, with the Middle East conflict likely to depress near-term expansion, Owen says.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s next: <\/strong>Business confidence jumped to its highest level since August 2024, with firms banking on an end to regional disruptions to improve broader conditions and stabilize the EGP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
