US economy shows strong growth with PMI at 57.6, inflation pressures persist, cautious equity stance advised.

The US economy remains robust entering Q4, with S&P Global's Flash Composite PMI at 57.6, indicating strong growth in manufacturing and services driven by domestic and export demand. Inflationary pressures continue, mainly due to rising energy and freight costs, pushing input and selling prices to their highest since 2022. Despite weak consumer sentiment, real consumption is improving. Investors are advised to maintain a modestly defensive equity approach amid sector rotation, with expectations of new market highs by 2027.

The US economy's robust performance is the subject, with Pluang's market snapshot as of Oct 25, 2026 17:21 WIB showing 46 of 150 priced US stocks rose while 102 fell. Schlumberger NV (SLB) gained 7.08% to USD 53.06 with a Pluang order activity of 97% Sell and 3% Buy. Halliburton Company (HAL) rose 5.21% to USD 34.92, favored by 88% Buy orders on Pluang.
