The increased availability of materials also contributed to some relief from price pressures. The info costs file was at its most reduced since November 2020, however over the pre-pandemic normal.
According to Smith, “Still, rapidly falling new orders remains an issue for many manufacturers, particularly intermediate goods producers (i.e., makers of components for other businesses), with high stocks being just one of the factors weighing on demand.” “Still, rapidly falling new orders remains an issue for many manufacturers.”
