01.06.202607:00:00UTC+00Hungary’s Manufacturing PMI Slips to 50.2 in May, Signaling Softer Expansion

Hungary’s manufacturing sector lost a touch of momentum in May 2026, with the Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) easing to 50.2 from April’s 50.5. The latest reading, updated on 1 June 2026, still sits marginally above the 50-point threshold that separates expansion from contraction, indicating that the sector continues to grow but at a slightly slower pace.

The modest decline suggests that while factory activity remains in expansionary territory, underlying conditions may be softening at the margin. Investors and policymakers will be watching upcoming releases closely to see whether May’s dip is a temporary pause or the start of a more pronounced slowdown in Hungary’s manufacturing recovery.
