HSBC China manufacturing PMI for September (final)
- The flash reading was 50.5
- Unchanged from the August reading
–
Hongbin Qu, Chief Economist, China & Co-Head of Asian Economic Research at HSBC said:
- “Output and new orders were both revised down
- Meanwhile, the employment and price sub-indices were revised up, although both remain at relatively low levels
- The new export orders sub-index rose to its highest reading since March 2010
- Overall, the data in September suggest that manufacturing activity continues to expand at a slow pace. We think risks to growth are still on the downside and warrant more accommodative monetary as well as fiscal policies.”
