In September 2025, the UAE’s non-oil private sector posted its strongest growth in seven months, driven by a rebound in new orders, rising business activity, and stronger employment figures. According to S&amp;P Global, the UAE Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) climbed to 54.2 from 53.3 in August. The expansion was largely fueled by a surge in new demand, especially from domestic sources, and companies reported increased hiring to meet order backlogs. However, firms trimmed inventories for the third consecutive month. While input costs continued to rise, competitive pressures kept output price inflation in check. Growth was especially strong in Dubai, mirroring national trends, and forecasts suggest non-hydrocarbon GDP could grow by 4.5 % this year, with 4.8 % growth expected in 2026.https://wa.me/message/KOZIZEY5B4M7B1

After three straight sessions of losses, the stock markets in the UAE rebounded, with Dubai’s main index rising about 0.7%.&nbsp;&nbsp;The rebound was led by strong performance in financials and consumer staples—Dubai Islamic Bank rose ~2.5% and supermarket operator Spinneys saw a ~6.8% gain.&nbsp;&nbsp;In Abu Dhabi, energy and banking stocks also helped reverse downward momentum. ADNOC Gas surged ~4.1%, aided by its parent company’s entry into a U.S. LNG project.&nbsp;&nbsp;While the rebound is encouraging, the article notes that both markets still ended the week in the red, with Dubai down ~2.8% and Abu Dhabi ~1.3%, marking Dubai’s worst weekly performance in over three months.&nbsp;&nbsp; Potential support is expected from strong fundamentals and the upcoming ALEC IPO, which analysts believe could help stabilize sentiment.https://wa.me/message/KOZIZEY5B4M7B1

Dubai and Abu Dhabi’s stock markets rose after the UAE central bank cut interest rates by 0.25 percentage points, following a similar move by the U.S. Federal Reserve. Dubai’s main stock index gained 0.7%, driven largely by real estate and industrial companies such as Emaar Development and Gulf Navigation Holding. Abu Dhabi’s index also increased by about 0.3%, supported by ADNOC Gas and Emirates Telecommunications Group. Analysts noted that the UAE’s economic growth forecast for 2025 has been revised upward to 4.9% from 4.4%, reflecting stronger oil output and non-oil sector performance.
