Philippines Manufacturing PMI Picks Up Steam In July - S&P Global

(RTTNews) - The manufacturing sector in the Philippines continued to expand in July, and at a faster rate, the latest survey from S&P Global revealed on Tuesday with a manufacturing PMI score of 51.9.

That's up from 50.9 in June, and it moves further above the boom-or-bust line of 50 that separates expansion from contraction.

Underpinning the latest uptick in the headline index reading was a quicker rise in new orders. Anecdotal evidence noted that a growing customer base and improved underlying demand trends propelled the latest upturn.

At the same time, foreign demand for Filipino goods grew for the seventh successive month. The rate of growth in new export orders accelerated to a three-month high.
