香港4月標普全球PMI降至52.4
標普全球4月香港特區採購經理指數(PMI)經季節調整後,由3月的53.5降至52.4,仍顯示營商環境穩步向好,反映私營經濟景氣轉佳。
調查資料透露,疫控鬆綁繼續引領4月的經濟增長,企業尤其強調內地與香港之間跨境旅遊全面復常,以及清關暢順,帶動生產與新增訂單量再度上升,但兩者升幅都放緩至三個月低位,而且有跡象顯示,增長速度很可能在較低水平維持。企業同時反映,隨著整體新訂單增加,其出口訂單與來自內地的業務量,亦有錄得增長。
清關手續簡便,支持企業看好未來一年前景。整體樂觀情緒高於長期平均值,但遜於2月的歷史高位。由於前景具有信心,並處於業務擴張階段,因此企業於第二季開局添加人手。職位增長已持續五個月,4月升幅雖溫和,但仍是兩年以來新高。
此外,有見於投入成本上漲,企業往往提高售價,因此產出價格飆升至2011年7月以來最急。
目前為止,供應商已連續六個月縮短交貨時間。綜合而言,最近三個月的改善程度乃1999年初以來的歷史高位之一。
標普全球市場財智經濟研究部總監Andrew Harker表示,數據顯示,擴張速度從經濟重啟的急速步伐逐漸減慢,大抵是意料中事。雖然價格通脹對訂單需求造成壓力,但增長有望於一個持續性更佳的水平穩定下來。就業是增長加快的一環,月內升幅創兩年以來最快。
