روسیه - شاخص PMI تولید

The IHS Markit Russia Manufacturing PMI dropped to 45.6 in November 2019, the lowest since May 2009, from 47.2 in the prior month. The overall contraction was driven by weaker demand conditions, with production and new orders falling at steeper rates. In addition, foreign demand dropped at a marked rate, and firms reduced further their workforce numbers. A reduction in pressure on capacity was also seen in a sharp fall in backlogs of work. At the same time, a sustained fall in purchasing activity led to inventory levels being depleted further as firms increasingly fulfilled pre-existing demand by selling from stock and utilising previously purchased raw materials. On the price front, inflationary pressures eased to historically muted rates, with weak client demand and greater efforts to discount leading to a fractional rise in output charges. Looking ahead, sentiment hit its lowest in two years.

Also, firms reduced their purchasing activity further as they supplemented production through the use of pre-production inventories.

Output charges rose marginally as firms sought to stay competitive. Looking ahead, sentiment remained strongly positive.
