The Zhitong Finance App learned that data released by S&P Global on Friday showed that the final value of the US manufacturing purchasing managers' index (PMI) for December was 51.8, which was in line with the previous initial value and market expectations, but fell slightly from 52.2 in November. This reading is still above the boom and bust line of 50, indicating that manufacturing activity continues to expand, but the intensity of expansion has fallen to its lowest level in the past five months, indicating that the momentum for manufacturing recovery is slowing down.
