5月美国工业产出环比持平，预期增长0.2%，前值由下降0.5%修正至下降0.4%。

5月美国制造业产出环比增长0.1%，预期增长0.1%，前值下降0.4%。

美国5月产能利用率77.6%，预期77.8%，前值从77.8%修正为77.7%。

5月的产能利用率也降至去年10月以来最低水平。

5月美国工业产出部分细分数据如下：

美国消费品产出环比下降0.1%，前值下降0.7%；同比增长1.2%；

耐用消费品产出环比增长0.2%，非耐用品产出环比下降0.1%；

商业设备产出环比增长0.1%，前值下降0.3%；同比增长3.3%；

国防及太空设备产出环比下降0.7%，连续5个月下降；

市场证券Kyte集团的经济学家Christophe Barraud此次准确预测了5月美国工业产出数据，他表示:

“美国的CEO们仍然很谨慎，因为财政方面还有许多不确定性。全球需求一依然疲弱，工业产出可能会在今年第三季度末或者第四季度初开始加速增长，因为自动减支机制的冲击到那时将会受到限制。”

The production of consumer goods edged down 0.1 percent in May after having declined 0.7 percent in April; the index in May was 1.2 percent higher than its level of a year earlier. The production of durable consumer goods moved up 0.2 percent in May, and the output of nondurables slid 0.1 percent. Among consumer durables, the indexes for automotive products; home electronics; and appliances, furniture, and carpeting moved up, while the index for miscellaneous goods decreased. The production of non-energy nondurables edged down 0.1 percent; losses in the indexes for foods and tobacco and for paper products outweighed gains in the production of clothing and of chemical products. After having fallen 3.1 percent in April, the output of consumer energy products declined 0.2 percent further in May; a decrease in sales by utilities to residences more than offset an increase in the production of fuels.

After having declined 0.3 percent in April, the output of business equipment edged up 0.2 percent in May and was 3.3 percent above its year-earlier level. The index for transit equipment increased 0.5 percent in May, primarily as a result of an increase in the production of medium and heavy trucks, and the index for information processing equipment rose 1.2 percent, with the gain concentrated in the output of electrical instruments. Widespread declines among the components of industrial and other equipment resulted in a decrease of 0.3 percent for that market group.

The output of defense and space equipment decreased 0.7 percent in May; the index last posted a gain in December 2012.

Among nonindustrial supplies, the production of construction supplies moved down 0.2 percent in May following decreases of 1.2 percent in both March and April; output in May was 2.6 percent above its level of a year earlier. After having fallen 0.9 percent in April, the production of business supplies declined 0.3 percent in May and stood 0.7 percent below its year-earlier level.

The production of materials to be processed further in the industrial sector advanced 0.2 percent in May and was 2.1 percent above its level of a year earlier. All major components of materials posted gains in May. The output of durable materials edged up 0.1 percent, as increases in the indexes for consumer parts and equipment parts were nearly offset by a decline in the index for other durable materials. Following four months of losses, the production of nondurable materials increased 0.4 percent in May. Among its major subcategories, both textile materials and chemical materials recorded gains while paper materials was unchanged. The output of energy materials edged up 0.1 percent to post its fifth consecutive monthly increase.
