Australian Manufacturing PMI

The PMI, or Purchasing Manager’s Index, is a measure of whether a sector is growing or contracting. Growth is above 50 and contraction is below 50. So here is the last 12 months for Australian Manufacturing shown visually.

This is a continuing trend since mid 2015 and a really good thing for the overall Australian economy.

 

And to top it off, the growth in Australian Manufacturing in August 2017 was the highest since 2002. So really kicking some goals this year.

Australian Manufacturing PMI

It is official. For the past three months Australian Manufacturing has grown each month. This has been confirmed by both AMTIL and Manufacturers’ Monthly.

 

This is in spite of weak demand in the metals sector. It is good to see some resilience showing as the manufacturing sectors diversify.

The primary data comes from the Australian Industry Group Australian Performance of Manufacturing Index (Australian PMI). This is a numerical measure of manufacturing output and numbers above 50 indicate growth and numbers below 50 indicate decline.

 

So some good news for us all.
