The global economy has now moved into a recovery, and the U.S. economy has pushed ahead 3.5% in the third quarter. A recovery is also evident in commodity prices, which have rallied strongly since their crash in 2008. However, ample capacity still exists in both material and labor markets. How can this less-than-sanguine fundamental picture be reconciled with the evident strength in prices? What are the implications of this disparity downstream in supply chains?
In this quarter's Pricing and Purchasing Webcast, we will answer these questions with a focus on the aerospace and defense industries. Our industry experts will present the market outlook for this sector and highlight cost pressures stemming from metals, labor, and composite materials. Join IHS Global Insight at 11:00 a.m. ET on Wednesday, 2 December as we discuss important issues affecting today's supply chains.
Presented by:
John Mothersole, Principal, Pricing and Purchasing, IHS Global Insight
Katherine Lewis, Director, European Pricing and Purchasing, IHS Global Insight
John Scholle, Senior Economist, Pricing and Purchasing, IHS Global Insight
