United States Markit Manufacturing PMI

The Markit Manufacturing Purchasing Manager's Index is produced from a survey of 600 industrial enterprises in the United States and measures the manufacturing sector's performance in the country. All five indicators were evaluated based on the characteristics: New Orders (30%), Production (25%), Workforce (20%), Provider Delivery Times (15%), and Inventory of Items Purchased (10%), with the Delivery Times index inverted so that it moves in a similar direction to the other four indexes. A value above 50 implies that the manufacturing sector has expanded in comparison to the previous month; a rating below 50 implies that the manufacturing sector has contracted, and a value of 50 implies that nothing has changed.

A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the USD while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the USD.
