Manufacturing sector data out across the globe this morning shows more strong growth in many regions, with China's Purchasing Managers Index hitting a record high of 57.4. India's PMI is at its highest in one and a half years. And here in South Africa, the manufacturing sector had its third month of expansion last month, rising to 53.6. This is the sixth increase in a row and of course the PMI rose above the 50 breakeven level last November.
