NEWS ALERT :: China's June Manufacturing PMI comes in at 51.2, reports Reuters
>> The Caixin/Markit Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) rose to 51.2 last month, the fastest pace of growth since December, and up from May’s 50.7.
>> China’s factory activity grew at a faster clip in June after the government lifted coronavirus lockdown measures and ramped up support steps, but the health crisis continues to pressure exports and jobs, a private business survey showed on Wednesday.
>> China’s economy is gradually emerging from a sharp 6.8% contraction in the first quarter, with much of the country reopened after weeks of disruptions early in the year due to strict lockdown measures. But demand remained subdued, as many manufacturers are still struggling with reduced or cancelled overseas orders amid faltering global demand.
