China RatingDog Composite PMI
The RatingDog China General Composite PMI, compiled by S&P Global, surveys around 1,300 companies across the manufacturing and service sectors. Data have been collected monthly since November 2005 to track changes in activity compared with the previous month. The Composite Output Index is a weighted average of the Manufacturing Output Index and the Services Business Activity Index, with weights based on the relative size of each sector according to official GDP data. A diffusion index is calculated for the survey, ranging from 0 to 100, with readings above 50 indicating overall growth. While sometimes referred to as the Composite PMI, it is not directly comparable with the headline manufacturing PMI. This is only a limited sample of PMI headline data displayed on the Customer’s service, under licence from S&P Global. Full historic PMI headline data and all other PMI sub-index data and histories are available on subscription from S&P Global. Contact economics@spglobal.com for more details.
