Today the U.S. Manufacturing ISM report was published and the U.S. Manufacturing
PMI reached 50.8% during October. The U.S. Manufacturing PMI, which is an index
that shows the economic activity in the U.S. manufacturing sector, grew for the
27th consecutive month; the growth rate declined from 51.6% in September to
50.8% in October i.e. a 0.8 percent points decrease. This means that the U.S.
manufacturing sector is still growing but at a slightly slower pace in October
compared to September. Among the factors that were examined in this survey: one
of the sharpest decrease was in customers inventories from 49.0% to 43.5% a
decrease of 5.5 percent point; exports also fell by 3.5 percent points to 50%
still in a growing rate; on the other hand, among the factors that expanded were
new orders – a rise of 2.8 percent point to 52.4% and backlog of orders – an
increase of 6.0 percent point to 47.5. According to Roache et. al (2008) it was
suggested that the PMI Manufacturing ISM report has a negative correlation with
gold and silver prices, without controlling the US dollar effect. Currently, it
seems that this news doesnt have much of an effect
