The S&P Global Egypt PMI was up to 46.4 in July 2022 from June's 2-year low of 45.2. That said, the latest result was the 20th straight month of drop in the non-oil private sector, amid persistent headwinds to the economy. Output continued to fall amid weakening new orders, but the rate of drop slowed for the first time since April. Also, buying levels decreased further, down for the 7th-month running. Meantime, employment stabilized, ending a prior 8-month run of job losses, with backlogs of work up for the 2nd month in a row. On prices, there were signs that inflation had begun to soften, with fewer companies reporting a rise in their input cost compared to June, when the pace of inflation hit a near 4-year high. Meanwhile, the rate of charge inflation was still the 2nd-quickest since July 2018, amid rising prices for raw materials, fuel, and foodstuff. Lastly, confidence fell sharply after June's 5-month peak and was one of the weakest on record. source: Markit Economics

Egypt Non-Oil Private Sector Shrinks the Most in 2 Years
The S&P Global Egypt PMI dropped to 45.2 in June 2022 from 47.0 in May. This was the 19th straight month of drop in the private sector and the steepest pace in two years, amid the strongest deterioration in economic conditions since Q2 of 2020. Both output and new orders fell the most since Q2 2020, linked to rising inflation and tightening monetary policy. Also, buying levels dropped at the fastest rate since April 2020; while staffing capacity was also lowered, albeit at a modest pace that was the slowest recorded since March. On prices, input cost inflation climbed to a near 4-year high, due geopolitical headwinds, surging transport cost, a further devaluation of the pound against the US dollar, and the fastest pace for eight months in staff wages. Subsequently, output charges were raised at the strongest rate since February 2017. Lastly, sentiment was at a 5-month high, on hopes that activity will start to recover from its current slump.

Egypt Non-Oil Private Sector PMI Little Changed in May
The S&P Global Egypt PMI was at 47.0 in May 2022, compared with 46.9 a month earlier. This was the 18th straight month of drop in private sector activity, with the gauge for output continuing to post below the neutral of 50.0, while new orders fell the most since June 2020. At the same time, employment shrank for the 7th in as many months, and backlogs of work dropped for the fourth month running. Delivery times worsened for the seventh straight month, as input buying continued to fall. On prices, input cost inflation accelerated to the highest print in six months, on the impact of the Ukraine war on commodity prices, as well as increased import costs due to supply shortages and a higher US dollar value. Selling prices, meantime, rose at a faster rate, but the uptick was only modest. Finally, sentiment slipped to the second-lowest on record after having reached an all-time low in March, due to concerns that inflationary pressures will limit business growth.
