Republic of Ireland Construction PMI – May 2020

The Ulster Bank Construction Purchasing Managers’ Index® (PMI®) – a seasonally adjusted index designed to track changes in total construction activity – posted 19.9 in May, up from 4.5 in April. Index readings above 50 signal an increase in activity on the previous month and readings below 50 signal a decrease. Although weaker than the unprecedented decline seen in the previous month, the rate of contraction was still sharper than at any other time in 20 years of data collection.
