The Tengri Partners Kazakhstan Manufacturing PMI fell to 50.8 in December 2022 from 51.9 in November. It was the third month of expansion, albeit the softest, as production ticked down despite improvements in new business. New orders grew slightly for the 2nd month running, but production was unable to keep pace, with some firms noting challenges on rising demand amid financial pressures. As outputs fall behind, firms sometimes turn to inventories to fulfill orders, prompting stocks of finished goods to drop for the 2nd month. Also, employment fell for the first time in three months. Meanwhile, purchasing activity rose to its fastest rate since July 2022, however firms continued to face delays due largely to disruption in logistics. On prices, input costs slowed to its 3-year low, yet the continued rises in raw materials pushed output prices to a 3-month high. Looking ahead, business confidence eased from a 20-month high, but sentiments remain above the series average. source: Markit Economics
