Details of the October 2015 US ISM manufacturing PMI data report 2 November 2015
– New orders 52.9 vs 50.1 prior
– Prices paid 39.0 vs 38.0 exp. Prior 38.0
Not good news on employment and that could take some of the positives from the fact that new orders were higher, and the headline kept above contraction, despite falling vs September. Better exports but they remain in contraction also. Imports sink below 50.0
