U.K. Final Manufacturing PMI

Today U.K. will release Manufacturing PMI results at 0830 GMT/1400 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. It 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. The Above 50.0 indicates industry expansion, below indicates contraction.
