Estados Unidos Producción Industrial (Mensual)

Industrial production in the US was little changed in April 2025, missing market expectations of a 0.2% gain, as declines in manufacturing and mining were offset by a solid gain in utilities output. Manufacturing output fell 0.4%, reversing a 0.4% increase in March, while mining slipped 0.3% after rising 1.1% the previous month. In contrast, utilities output jumped 3.3%, driven by higher demand for both electricity and natural gas. Capacity utilization edged down to 77.7%, remaining 1.9 percentage points below its long-term average (1972–2024), suggesting continued slack in the industrial sector.
