- The S&P Global US manufacturing PMI was surprisingly revised up to 51.2 in the final January print (prelim 50.1) from 49.4 in December, leaving it at its highest since June.
- “Both output and new orders returned to growth in January, while optimism in the year-ahead outlook for production hit a 34-month high. At least part of the jump in confidence and more buoyant demand picture reflected a sense among firms that business conditions will improve under President Trump.”
- “Meanwhile, input costs continued to increase sharply, leading the pace of output price inflation to accelerate for the third month running to reach the highest since March 2024."
