China manufacturing rebounds in June: HSBC

Is the recovery sustainable?

The HSBC Flash China Manufacturing PMI reading rebounded to a year to date high of 50.8 in June, which came in much stronger than consensus expectations of 49.7 and is the highest reading since November 2013.

According to HSBC, the improvement was broad-based with both domestic orders and external demand sub-indices in expansionary territory. Inventory reduction quickened.

“This month's improvement is consistent with data suggesting that the authorities' mini-stimulus are filtering through to the real economy. Over the next few months, infrastructure investments and related sectors will continue to support the recovery. We expect policy makers to continue their current path of accommodative policy stance until the recovery is sustained,” noted the report.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
