TD Securities reports United Kingdom (UK) Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grew 0.1% month-on-month in May, matching their forecast and beating the market’s flat expectation. Three‑month growth remains strong at 0.7%, with services and manufacturing outperforming. However, construction dragged and they see Q2 GDP tracking 0.2% quarter-on-quarter, warning residual seasonality likely overstates first-half data, implying underlying growth may be closer to zero.
Growth solid but may be overstated
"GDP growth came out in line with our forecast of +0.1% m/m in May (mkt: 0.0%), following the small negative print in April."
"It leaves 3m/3m GDP, the ONS' preferred measure, running at a still-strong 0.7%."
"Details of the report were constructive, with both services and manufacturing out-pacing expectations in May."
"This leaves GDP growth on track for a 0.2% q/q gain in the second quarter, a notable slowdown from 0.6% in Q1."
"If this bias persists, it suggests that true underlying Q2 growth is closer to zero."
