Business activity in Dublin stagnated in Q4 of 2022

The headline rate dipped to 49.9, from 50.4 in the fourth quarter, indicating a marginal contraction in overall activity.

Output across the rest of Ireland in the final quarter of 2022 remained narrowly within expansionary territory.At 48.1, new orders in the capital contracted in the fourth quarter, which outside of Covid restricted times is the first decrease since 2012. Today's report from S&P Global states that these new order trends are concerning as the effects of interest rate hikes will likely only begin to be felt in the quarters to come.

At 52.3 the rate of job creation was solid, but slowed to the weakest level since the first quarter of 2021."Dublin firms are feeling the pinch at present as waning demand acts to limit business activity both in the capital and across the rest of Ireland as well," said Andrew Harker, Economics Director at S&P Global Market Intelligence.
