CHINA
  • In signs that the various policy measures are having an impact, China’s CAIXIN PMI Manufacturing bounced for November up to 51.5 from 50.3 prior.
  • This is the highest reading in five months and likely indicates that the impact of stimulus is starting to impact corporate activity and behaviors.
  • Output was up to 53.2 from 51.8 in October.
  • New orders were higher than the month prior.
  • The corporate sector has been somewhat buffeted in the China downturn as exports have remained robust.
