In a miracle of modern goal-seeking, China’s Manufacturing PMI clung to within an inch of ‘stable’ 50 level for the 20th month (actually missing expectations of 50.0, printing 49.9) But while manufacturing is its lowest since Feb, the non-manufacturing PMI jumped to 53.9 – its highest since Dec 15. Even better, just 45 monutes after this data, Caixin released their manufacturing PMI data which smahed expectations, surging to 50.6 – its highest since Feb 2015.
