S&P Global Manufacturing PMI
The S&P Global Manufacturing PMI is a survey-based index of U.S. factory activity, covering output, new orders, employment, and prices, published monthly by S&P Global. It is watched by currency traders as an early, forward-looking signal of manufacturing sector momentum, with readings above or below the 50 threshold indicating expansion or contraction. Because it is released before many official government statistics, it often sets early expectations for broader economic data.
