The article from MSN discusses the economic conditions in Kenya as of February, highlighting that the private sector growth has remained steady, but the outlook remains dim. According to the Stanbic Bank Kenya Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI), business activity in Kenya showed a slight increase, with the PMI at 51.3, indicating expansion but at a slower pace than in previous months. Despite this growth, several challenges persist including high inflation, a weakening Kenyan shilling, and political uncertainty which are dampening business confidence. The report notes a decline in new orders and employment, with firms citing reduced consumer demand due to increased living costs. Additionally, there's a mention of ongoing issues like drought affecting agricultural output, and increased costs for inputs which are squeezing profit margins. The article suggests that while there is some resilience in the private sector, the overall economic environment remains challenging with a cautious outlook for the near future.
