"December’s flash PMI surveys brought welcome news on faster economic growth at the end of the year, with businesses buoyed in part by the post-Budget lifting of uncertainty. The PMI is consistent with GDP growth accelerating to 0.2% in December, albeit with a more modest 0.1% gain signalled for the fourth quarter as a whole," Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist at S&P Global Market Intelligence said.
