U.S. and Ezone Factory Purchasing Manager Surveys in July 2017
August 1, 2017
The sharp relative improvement in U.S. manufacturing vis-a-vis Euroland seen in June was reversed partly a month later. The U.S. PMI fell 1.5 points to 56.3, while Euroland’s PMI declined by a lesser 0.8 points to 56.6. The euro continued to appreciate against the dollar in July, suggesting that the PMI will probably move back in the U.S. favor in the months ahead.
