FX.co ★ US Industrial Output Growth Unchanged at 0.1%

US industrial production edged up 0.1% month-over-month in June 2026, matching May’s increase but coming in just below the 0.2% gain expected by markets. Manufacturing output was unchanged overall: a 0.1% decline in durable goods—driven by lower production of wood products, nonmetallic mineral products, machinery, and electrical equipment—offset a 0.2% increase in nondurable goods, supported by a 2.1% jump in petroleum and coal output. Both mining and utilities rose 0.4%, with higher electricity generation more than compensating for a drop in natural gas production. For the second quarter of 2026, industrial production grew at an annualized rate of 4.0%.
