US economy continues to strengthen whereas the euro area is slowing down. In the second quarter, Italian economic growth suffered from a negative contribution of net foreign demand and a decline in labor productivity only partially offset by the recovery of capital accumulation. The diffusion index decreased in manufacturing and remained constant in services. Inflation is recovering, at a slower pace than the euro area. The leading indicator suggests a moderate pace for the next months.
