PMI for Kina- læs hele meddelelsen her:
The Caixin China Composite PMI™ data (which covers both manufacturing and services)
showed that overall Chinese business activity rose further during August. Though modest,
the rate of growth was the quickest recorded since April, with the Composite Output Index
rising from 50.9 in July to 51.6.
Activity across the service sector expanded at a faster pace than that seen for the manufacturing sector during August. This was highlighted by the seasonally adjusted Chinese Services Business Activity Index posting 52.1, up from 51.6 in July, signalling the strongest rise in services activity for three months.
Manufacturing production rose only marginally midway through the third quarter, though this marked an improvement upon the broad stagnation of output seen in July. Higher activity levels were supported by greater intakes of new orders at Chinese companies.
At the composite level, the rate of new order growth was the quickest seen since April, albeit modest overall. The upturn was led by services companies, who saw a solid increase in new orders that was the most marked for four months. In contrast, goods producers registered broadly unchanged amounts of new work.
