Get the earliest insight into how global economies are recovering through the third quarter from COVID-19 lockdowns from the world’s leading survey data – based on more than 28,000 interviews – the Purchasing Managers’ Index™ (PMI™)
PMI™ data indicated that the global economy continued to recover
in September, but preliminary "flash" PMI data for October have
hinted that the expansion failed to gain further momentum at the
start of the fourth quarter. Second waves of COVID-19 infections
were widely blamed for weaker growth—and even
contractions—in some economies.
More insights into whether the recovery is progressing or fading
will be revealed by the final October data, published between the 1
and 5 November.
