U.K. Manufacturing PMI

U.K. will release final manufacturing PMI data around 0930 GMT/1500 IST.

This data is derived via a survey of about 600 purchasing managers which asks respondents to rate the relative level of business conditions including employment, production, new orders, prices, supplier deliveries and inventories. A reading above 50.0 indicates industry expansion, below indicates contraction.
