الولايات المتحدة - الإنتاج الصناعي (شهريا)

Industrial production in the US increased 1.1 percent month-over-month in November of 2019, following an upwardly revised 0.9 percent fall in October and beating market expectations of a 0.8 percent rise. It is the biggest jump in industrial output since October of 2017, due to a bounce back in the output of motor vehicles and parts following the end of a strike at General Motors. The 40-day strike was the longest for auto workers in 50 years and involved more than 48,000 people. It ended with a new four-year contract between the company and the United Auto Workers union in which some small pay rises and factory investments were included.

US industrial output dropped 0.8 percent from a month earlier in October 2019, following a revised 0.3 percent fall in September and compared to market forecasts of a 0.4 percent decline. That was the steepest contraction in industrial activity since May 2018, led by a 7.1 percent slump in the output of motor vehicles and parts that resulted from a strike at a major manufacturer of motor vehicles.

US industrial output dropped 0.4 percent from a month earlier in September 2019, following an upwardly revised 0.8 percent gain in August and compared with market consensus of a 0.1 percent fall. That was the sharpest decline in industrial output since April, as manufacturing production fell 0.5 percent, after rising 0.6 percent in August due to a strike at General Motors; and mining output dropped 1.3 percent. For the third quarter as a whole, industrial production rose at an annual rate of 1.2 percent following declines of about 2 percent in both the first and the second quarters.

US industrial output rose 0.6 percent from a month earlier in August 2019, following a revised 0.1 percent fall in July and easily beating market forecasts of a 0.2 percent growth. That was the largest gain in industrial output since August 2018, as manufacturing production increased 0.5 percent, more than reversing its decrease in July; and the indexes for utilities and mining moved up 0.6 percent and 1.4 percent, respectively.

US industrial output dropped 0.2 percent from a month earlier in July 2019, following a revised 0.2 percent growth in June and missing market forecasts of a 0.1 percent gain. Manufacturing output decreased 0.4 percent, worse than market forecasts of a 0.1 percent contraction; while mining output fell 1.8 percent, as Hurricane Barry caused a sharp but temporary decline in oil extraction in the Gulf of Mexico. By contrast, utilities output rose 3.1 percent.

US industrial output was unchanged in June 2019, following a 0.4 percent growth in May and missing market forecasts of a 0.1 percent gain. Increases for both manufacturing and mining offset a decline for utilities. For the second quarter as a whole, industrial production declined at an annual rate of 1.2 percent, its second consecutive quarterly decrease.
