Global Manufacturing Optimism Expands
Written by Sandy Williams
Global manufacturing performed slightly better in January, according the latest J.P. Morgan Global Manufacturing PMI. The composite PMI rose to a nine-month high of 50.4 from December’s reading of 50.1, although only slightly above the no-growth mark of 50.0.
Consumer and intermediate goods led the increase as investment goods continued to contract further.
