Global Manufacturing PMI Plunges To 6-Month Lows

Tyler Durden's picture




 

JPMorgan's global manufacturing PMI tumbled to its lowest level since October 2013 in April with the fastest 2-month drop in almost 2 years. At 51.9, the index is still in expansion (for the 17th month in a row) but the employment sub-index dropped as there is no sign of a post-weather bounce across the world.

Since when does the stock market have anything to do with the economy or economic output?  I'm an economist (by training, not by trade) and I don't ever recall a close correlation between the two.  Last 5 years it's they've been negatively correlated, near as I can tell.

Whatever is doing it, it certainly has nothing to do with China.

Who needs manufacturing or jobs when we have 'Fast-n-Furious' Central Bankers?
