Global Manufacturing Activity Shrinks

Starting from April of this year, for the first time in a long time, global production activity has been curtailed due to a decrease in orders and labor force.

Experts suggest that this production decline is a consequence of weakened demand dynamics and a shortage of labor, caused by various factors including the pandemic and global economic instability.

However, despite the deteriorating situation, some experts believe that this is a temporary phenomenon related to specific circumstances and that production may begin to recover in the coming months.

This is corroborated by the words of one of the specialists: "Despite the reduced scale of production, we see positive signals indicating a probable gradual recovery in the near future."
