ITALY DATA
In contrast to Spain, Italian services firms saw falls in new business as a result of subdued demand conditions, according to the August services PMI. However, output charge inflation increased even as input cost inflation “dropped below the long-run average”.
The rate of expansion in the Italian services sector has fallen for four consecutive months, after the August services PMI was lower than expected at 51.4 (vs 52.5 cons, 51.7 prior).
Key notes from the release:
- “The decrease in new work was only slight, but nevertheless marked the first signs of demand weakness of the year so far”.
- “Subdued client demand from abroad reportedly contributed to the latest fall in total new sales”.
- “To support current workloads, Italian services firms continued to recruit new staff in August”
- “Services firms continued to report input price hikes in August, with some firms blaming increased staffing and service costs”.
- “Firms raised charges at the most pronounced rate for three months”.
