Japan Jibun Bank Composite PMI
Based on data collected from a representative panel of over 800 businesses in Japan, the Nikkei Japan Composite Output Index measures business trends across the private sector activities. Sales, new orders, employment, inventories, and pricing are just a few of the variables tracked by the index. A value above 50 suggests that business activity is expanding, while a reading below 50 suggests that company activity is generally dropping.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the JPY while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the JPY.
