Details of the June 2015 US Markit manufacturing PMI data report 23 June 2015
- Prior 54.0
- Output 53.9 vs 55.2 prior
- New orders 54.5 vs 54.3 prior
That's the lowest headline number since Oct 2013 with output at the lowest since Jan last year
Employment is at the highest since Nov 2014 and new orders rising is probably the reports saving grace
The headline number has been enough to knock USDJPY off of its perch at 124.12 down to 124.00
Once more manufacturing shows that it continues to be the weakening hand in the US economy
