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.
