November 2025 Market Update

Key insights from BSW Market Intelligence & Analytics - providing strategic market data to inform business decisions.

Key Takeaways

US Economy

Contained inflation, waning labor momentum, and a Fed cautiously shifting toward easing. Growth heavily concentrated in data centers and select manufacturing.

Canada Economy

Moderate inflation, labor market stabilizing but not robust, and growth flagging. BoC's next moves depend on whether growth accelerates.

Manufacturing

ISM manufacturing PMI at 49.1% (contraction). Dodge Momentum Index rose 3.4% in September, signaling stronger construction spending in early 2027.

Construction Landscape

2025 construction is narrowing but deepening - fewer projects, bigger scopes, longer durations. Shift from broad growth to selective, mega-project-driven activity.
