Economic focus: US auto sector to weigh on manufacturing
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
The US automotive sector has enjoyed strong growth in the past five years, but a plateau has been reached. Passenger vehicle demand is unlikely to increase further. Production will likely decline, dragged lower by excess inventories, as well as migration of assembly lines to Mexico by manufacturers such as Ford. This will weigh on total US manufacturing, which has been supported by the automotive sector.
