Markit PMI (Purchasing Managers' Index) is a leading economic indicator that measures the health of a country's manufacturing sector. It is based on a monthly survey of purchasing managers from various industries, providing valuable insights into business conditions, production levels, new orders, and employment trends. A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the sector, while a reading below 50 indicates contraction. Markit PMI is widely used by investors, policymakers, and businesses to assess the overall economic outlook and make informed decisions.
Sentiment surveys are forward-looking inputs that often lead hard data on output and hiring. Sharp swings can drive cross-asset repricing. The release is more useful as part of a longer-run signal than as a single-print catalyst. Released monthly.
Latest reading (Feb 2022): actual 52.5. Prior reading (Jan 2022): 54.4. Before that (Jan 2022): 54.4.
Sigmacast's 1-month forecast points to a similar reading versus the latest print, with the 3-month outlook reinforcing that direction. Both horizons are aligned bearish for this indicator, suggesting a consistent trend signal. Trend-driven dynamics are the primary headwind in the current projection. This indicator correlates most strongly with USD/SGD (Bullish SGD, r=-0.50) — a useful reference for forex-focused traders.
