SpanishGold Spikes Down Sharply Ahead of U.S. ISM Manufacturing PMI Results, $11+ Volatility Likely; March 01, 2021
U.S. ISM Manufacturing PMI Data
Today U.S. has scheduled to release ISM manufacturing PMI results at 1500 GMT/2030 IST. It’s a leading indicator of economic health – businesses react quickly to market conditions, and their purchasing managers hold perhaps the most current and relevant insight into the company’s view of the economy. This data is derived via a survey of about 300 purchasing managers which asks respondents to rate the relative level of business conditions including employment, production, new orders, prices, supplier deliveries and inventories. The actual reading above 50.0 indicates industry expansion, below indicates contraction.
Let’s see how Gold has reacted during the previous data release:
