Trade Balance in United Arab Emirates
United Arab Emirates - Trade Balance
Growth appears to have moderated but remained healthy in the first quarter, as OPEC+ production cuts in effect since January dampened oil-sector growth, while non-oil activity picked up after a near-flat reading in Q4, thanks in good part to higher government spending. Turning to the second quarter, the non-oil sector appears to have made some positive strides. The PMI rose notably in April and then again in May, reaching an over four-year high, although payrolls have remained stagnant. Data for Dubai also indicates healthy tourism, as well as a pick-up in construction activity in May due in large part to the ramp-up of Expo 2020 projects. Nevertheless, OPEC+ cuts remained in place in the quarter—limiting the oil sector’s momentum and weighing on growth—and are likely to be extended until year-end at the next OPEC+ meeting ending 2 July.United Arab Emirates - Trade Balance Data
