Performance of Manufacturing Index (PMI) - World Trend 2011/2012 by Eduardo Petazze
Better known by its trade name Purchasing Managers' Index ™ (PMI ™), the Markit surveys, and the like, covering management expectations for manufacturing activity in some 38 countries. Being a composite index, weighted generally expected levels of production, orders, employment, time supplies, inventories, etc., in the form of diffusion index, for next month compared the previous month's levels. Positive responses (growth) are weighted at 100% and the answers "no change" are weighted by 50%. In this manner, an index above 50 points indicates expansion in activity, whereas if it is lower, is interpreted as a contraction in activity. Each component of the index is seasonally adjusted and are generally published the seasonally adjusted composite index compared to the previous month. For some countries (Canada, China, Japan, Mexico, USA) there is more than one measurement PMI manufacturing, and regional activity indices for UK and U.S. Aggregate Indices to the European Union (EU) and other global are published on a monthly and a quarterly indicator for emerging countries. The following tables show the evolution of PMI indices for 37 countries during the years 2011 and 2012, and a new global manufacturing PMI added, using as weights the GDP measured at PPP, as estimated by the IMF data for 2012.
