US SUPPLY DISRUPTIONS INDEX (US SDI) -- October 2024
Our monthly supply disruption index (US SDI) combines 200 million shipment-level import records for the US, measuring temporary disruptions in consumer-supplier pairs.
In October 2024, US SDI was at 1.42 percentage points (pp) of consumer-supply pairs temporarily disrupted above the pre-2020 average. This is a decrease compared to the peak level of supply disruptions in June 2020, which was 2.85pp higher as compared with the pre-2020 average.
Supply disruptions continue to persist with varying degrees across US regions, product categories, and countries of origin.
Disruptions for US firms remain elevated across all U.S. regions, and especially in the Midwest (1.89pp).
Among product categories, disruptions persist with varying degrees of severity. For example, disruptions for the manufacturing (1.69pp) and electrical machinery (1.54pp) categories remain elevated, disruptions for furniture (0.77pp) have slowed down.
Among countries of origin, disruptions with China (1.28pp) and South Korea (1.38pp) have decreased. Disruptions with India (1.91pp) have increased.
