FXstreet.com (San Francisco) - After the HSBC China PMI for September signaled the nation’s manufacturing sector is in contraction for the 11th successive month on Saturday, the “official” NBS Manufacturing PMI just released by the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing (CFLP) also signals that the Chinese manufacturing sector remains in contraction at 49.8, as above 50.0 indicates industry expansion, while below indicates contraction. This adds to growing concerns of slowing global growth.
