The Manufacturing Index evaluates the manufacturing sector’s performance in the US. This was obtained from a poll of 600 industrial businesses. The Index is based on Orders, Production, Employment, Delivery Times of Suppliers, and Stock of Purchased Items. A value above 50 denotes growth in the manufacturing sector relative to the prior month. A reading below 50 denotes contraction, and a reading of 50 denotes no change.
US Manufacturing PMI dropped from 52 in September to 49.9 in October 2022, well below market expectations of 51. This is the industry’s first decline since June 2020. Manufacturers cited the impact of rising inflation and stock building from earlier in the year as reasons for the fall. Hence, it waits to see what the Final US Manufacturing Index is.
