Economic News
• Core sector growth hits 7-month low as refinery slump and energysector weakness drag May output: ndia’s core sector growth slowed to a seven-month low of 0.5% YoY in May 2026, with five of eight key industries coal, crude oil, natural gas, refinery products and fertilizers reporting contractions. The sharp decline in refinery output, down 8.7%, was the biggest drag on growth, while electricity (+8.7%), cement (+8.4%) and steel (+5.0%) remained key support pillars. April’s growth was revised upward to 1.8%, but the weak May performance is expected to weigh on industrial production (IIP), with analysts projecting slower growth in the coming months.
Global News
• Japan PMI strengthens as stockpiling amid Iran conflict boosts manufacturing demand: Japan’s economy showed strong momentum in June, with manufacturing activity expanding for the third consecutive month as the PMI rose to 54.9. New orders grew at the fastest pace in over four years, supported by customer stockpiling amid concerns over supply disruptions and rising costs linked to the Iran conflict. Factory output and employment also strengthened, with manufacturing hiring reaching an eight-year high. While export order growth moderated slightly, both input and output cost inflation remained elevated due to higher energy, fuel, and raw material prices. Meanwhile, the services sector rebounded, lifting the composite PMI to 52.5, indicating a broader improvement in business activity, although analysts cautioned that some of the current strength is being driven by temporary inventory-building that may fade in the coming months.
