Trump unwilling to criticize China even after being largest Russian oil buyers, targets India unfairly: GTRI report
New Delhi [India], August 5 (ANI): US President Donald Trump has been unfairly targeting India over Russian oil imports, while choosing not to criticize China, according to a recent report by the Global Trade Research Initiative (GTRI). The report suggested that this selective approach may be driven by geopolitical calculations. As per the data from the report, China is the largest buyer of Russian oil. In 2024, China imported USD 62.6 billion worth of Russian oil, compared to India's USD 52.7 billion. Despite this, Trump has focused his criticism on India, ignoring China's bigger role. GTRI stated, 'Trump appears unwilling to criticize China, perhaps because of geopolitical calculations, and instead targets India unfairly'. The report also rejects Trump's recent claim posted on Truth Social, where he alleged that India is 'buying massive amounts of Russian oil and selling it on the open market for big profits.' GTRI clarified that this statement is factually incorrect and misleading. The think tank explained that India does not export crude oil, Russian or otherwise. India is a net importer of crude oil, and its total crude oil exports stand at zero. What India does export are refined petroleum products, including diesel and jet fuel, some of which are processed from Russian crude. This is standard practice among energy-importing countries, the report said. GTRI further stated that India's oil refineries, both public and private, operate independently in deciding where to source crude oil from. These companies do not need government permission to buy oil from Russia or any other country. Their decisions are based on commercial considerations, including price, supply reliability, and rules in export destinations. The report noted that if Indian refiners find that importing Russian crude involves risks, such as secondary sanctions or restricted access to global markets, they may reduce or stop such imports voluntarily. For example, India exported diesel and aviation turbine fuel (ATF) to the European Union in FY2025, but these exports will now stop due to the EU's ban on products refined from Russian crude. In such cases, refiners will shift away from Russian oil without needing a government order. This trend is already visible. In May 2025, India's imports from Russia declined by 9.8 per cent, amounting to USD 9.2 billion, compared to imports in May 2024. The GTRI report concluded that India is being unfairly targeted, while China's larger role goes unquestioned, possibly due to broader geopolitical interests. (ANI)

Treasury yields hit 3-month low in aftermath of jobs report, Fed resignation
SINGAPORE: US Treasury yields slipped to their lowest in three months on Monday on expectations the Federal Reserve would cut interest rates as soon as September after a weak jobs report, and as investors weighed the surprise resignation of a Fed governor. US President Donald Trump fired a top Labor Department official on Friday after the employment market data showed weak jobs growth, while the departure of Fed Governor Adriana Kugler offered Trump the chance to reshape the Fed. US two-year yields, which are tied to the Fed's monetary policy, hit 3.659 per cent in early trading on Monday, the lowest since May 1. Yields dropped 24 basis points (bps) on Friday, their largest daily fall in a year. The benchmark 10-year yield was steady at 4.245 per cent, hovering close to Friday's five-week low. Data on Friday showed that US employment growth was weaker than expected in July while the nonfarm payrolls count for the previous two months was revised down by 258,000 jobs, stoking investor concern about the integrity of economic data and the Fed's ability to read the true state of the economy. Investors responded by increasing the odds of the Fed resuming interest rate cuts from its next meeting in September. Traders are pricing in an 82.5 per cent chance of a rate cut now, compared to 61 per cent a week earlier, CME FedWatch's tool showed. "With two dissenters to the Fed hold decision at the recent Fed meeting, the pressure intensifies for the Fed to consider a more dovish monetary policy," said Harun Thilak, head of global capital markets at Validus Risk Management. Fed Governor Christopher Waller and Fed Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman were two dissenting governors to last week's decision by the Federal Reserve Open Committee to keep rates unchanged in the 4.25 per cent-4.50 per cent target range. They said on Friday they did so largely due to rising concerns about the job market, in statements made public just ahead of the release of hiring data that bolstered their position. Mansoor Mohi-uddin, chief macro strategist at Bank of Singapore, expects the Fed to wait for more data, noting that inflation was rising while weak payrolls growth could be due to both lower demand for and supply of labour. "But the risks of earlier rate cuts are rising, weakening the USD while keeping Treasury yields volatile," he said. Kugler did not attend last week's rate-setting meeting and will leave the central bank on August 8 to return to Georgetown University as a professor. Trump will select a governor to replace Kugler for the remainder of her term, which was scheduled to end on January 31, 2026. The greenback recovered some of its losses against the Japanese currency on Monday, last trading 0.26 per cent higher at 147.78 yen. The euro fell 0.14 per cent to US$1.1569 . Against a basket of currencies, the dollar edged up 0.15 per cent to 98.813, after sliding more than 1 per cent on Friday.

Manufacturing PMI® at 48%; July 2025 Manufacturing ISM® Report On Business®
New Orders and Backlogs Contracting; Production Growing and Employment Contracting; Supplier Deliveries Faster; Raw Materials Inventories Contracting; Customers' Inventories Too Low; Prices Increasing; Exports and Imports Contracting TEMPE, Ariz., Aug. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Economic activity in the manufacturing sector contracted in July for the fifth consecutive month, following a two-month expansion preceded by 26 straight months of contraction, say the nation's supply executives in the latest Manufacturing ISM® Report On Business®. The report was issued today by Susan Spence, MBA, Chair of the Institute for Supply Management® (ISM®) Manufacturing Business Survey Committee: 'The Manufacturing PMI® registered 48 percent in July, a 1-percentage point decrease compared to the 49 percent recorded in June. The overall economy continued in expansion for the 63rd month after one month of contraction in April 2020. (A Manufacturing PMI® above 42.3 percent, over a period of time, generally indicates an expansion of the overall economy.) The New Orders Index contracted for the sixth month in a row following a three-month period of expansion; the figure of 47.1 percent is 0.7 percentage point higher than the 46.4 percent recorded in June. The July reading of the Production Index (51.4 percent) is 1.1 percentage points higher than June's figure of 50.3 percent. The Prices Index remained in expansion (or 'increasing') territory, registering 64.8 percent, down 4.9 percentage points compared to the reading of 69.7 percent reported in June. The Backlog of Orders Index registered 46.8 percent, up 2.5 percentage points compared to the 44.3 percent recorded in June. The Employment Index registered 43.4 percent, down 1.6 percentage points from June's figure of 45 percent. 'The Supplier Deliveries Index indicated faster delivery performance after seven consecutive months in expansion (or 'slower') territory. The reading of 49.3 percent is down 4.9 percentage points from the 54.2 percent recorded in June. (Supplier Deliveries is the only ISM® Report On Business® index that is inversed; a reading of above 50 percent indicates slower deliveries, which is typical as the economy improves and customer demand increases.) The Inventories Index registered 48.9 percent, down 0.3 percentage point compared to June's reading of 49.2 percent. 'The New Export Orders Index reading of 46.1 percent is 0.2 percentage point lower than the reading of 46.3 percent registered in June. The Imports Index registered 47.6 percent, 0.2 percentage point higher than June's reading of 47.4 percent.' Spence continues, 'In July, U.S. manufacturing activity contracted at a faster rate, with declines in the Supplier Deliveries and Employment Indexes contributing as the biggest factors in the 1-percentage point loss of the Manufacturing PMI®. 'The demand indicators improved, with the New Orders and Backlog of Orders indexes contracting at slower rates, while the Customers' Inventories and New Export Orders indexes contracted at slightly faster rates. A 'too low' status for the Customers' Inventories Index is usually considered positive for future production. 'Regarding output, the Production Index increased month over month to move further into expansion territory, however; the Employment Index dropped further into contraction as panelists indicated that managing head count is still the norm at their companies, as opposed to hiring. The mixed indicators in output suggest companies still being cautious in their hiring even with an increase in production. 'Finally, inputs (defined as supplier deliveries, inventories, prices and imports), on net, declined further into contraction territory. The Inventories Index moved marginally further into contraction territory after expanding in April, as companies work to reduce or adjust inventory to better align with demand. The Supplier Deliveries Index indicated faster deliveries as supply chain performance improved and sluggish demand continued. Prices continued to increase, but at a slower rate. The Imports Index remained in contraction but moved upward slightly. 'Looking at the manufacturing economy, 79 percent of the sector's gross domestic product (GDP) contracted in July, up from 46 percent in June. Notably, 31 percent of GDP is strongly contracting (registering a composite PMI® of 45 percent or lower), up from 25 percent in June. The share of sector GDP with a PMI® at or below 45 percent is a good metric to gauge overall manufacturing weakness. Of the six largest manufacturing industries, none expanded in July, compared to four in June,' says Spence. The seven manufacturing industries reporting growth in July — listed in order — are: Apparel, Leather & Allied Products; Plastics & Rubber Products; Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Textile Mills; Miscellaneous Manufacturing; Furniture & Related Products; and Primary Metals. The 10 industries reporting contraction in July — in the following order — are: Printing & Related Support Activities; Paper Products; Chemical Products; Machinery; Wood Products; Fabricated Metal Products; Computer & Electronic Products; Transportation Equipment; Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components; and Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products. WHAT RESPONDENTS ARE SAYING 'Fairly flat quarter over quarter, but with us being in the safety and security sector (and with U.S. Customs and Border Protection as a customer), the recent bill that passed should result in an increase in business in the coming months.' [Computer & Electronic Products] 'Sales continue at unprecedented growth, driven by data-center construction. Customers and the sales team continue to demand lower pricing, which drives down gross margins in face of input price increases, primarily from aluminum imports.' [Chemical Products] 'These tariff wars are beginning to wear us out. It's been very difficult to forecast what we will pay in duties and calculate any cost savings we've had this year. Also, tariffs have disrupted our customs import bond. There is zero clarity about the future, and it's been a difficult few months trying to figure out where everything is going to land and the impact on our business. So far, tremendous and unexpected costs have been incurred.' [Apparel, Leather & Allied Products] 'Currently, higher interest rates still depress the construction industry for new construction projects. Tariff policies are uncertain, which slows down (1) our investment in new projects, (2) component sourcing for new products, (3) blanket orders and (4) replenishment of large inventory quantities. Instead, we're working to shift suppliers to lower political risk countries or develop domestic sources. We are impacted by the higher tariffs on costs of raw materials and components both sourced domestically and from overseas, and we expect expenses will be higher in the third and fourth quarters as we consume the inventory received with new and higher tariffs or update costs from domestic sources in the second quarter.' [Machinery] 'Sales softening more than usual during the summer. Negotiations with non-U.S. manufacturers are strained as we are reluctant to issue POs for deliveries three or more months into the future with prices that include current tariffs.' [Fabricated Metal Products] 'In the health-care world we continue with 'business as normal,' but we are increasingly searching and assessing geopolitical risk mitigation options.' [Miscellaneous Manufacturing] 'Tariffs are causing complete uncertainty around sourcing strategies. A sit-and-wait game for now.' [Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components] 'Sales are about on par with 2024, but nowhere near budget forecast. Tariff concerns seem to be growing as the year progresses.' [Nonmetallic Mineral Products] 'Business is steady, with solid bookings and backlog. Still uncertainty about tariffs and associated inflation.' [Furniture & Related Products] 'Energy capacity, specifically in the grid operated by PJM Interconnection, continues to be one of the major concerns for business continuity and growth in this region. The procurement of power and rising natural gas prices in this region due to past green energy policies, coupled with future projected allocations for artificial intelligence data centers, adds additional stress to the PJM system.' [Primary Metals] 'Cautiously stable. Tariff impacts are still being monitored. Some increases have been implemented while monitoring other products.'

JULY 2025 MANUFACTURING INDEX SUMMARIES Manufacturing PMI® The U.S. manufacturing sector contracted in July for the fifth consecutive month after two months of expansion preceded by 26 months of contraction. 'The Manufacturing PMI® registered 48 percent, 1 percentage point lower compared to the 49 percent reported in June. Of the five subindexes that directly factor into the Manufacturing PMI®, only one (Production) is in expansion territory, down from two in June. The slowing of supplier deliveries in previous months reversed course, with a 4.9-percentage point index decrease indicating a drawdown of manufacturing inventories and easing port congestion. The Employment Index decreased and it remained with New Orders in contraction territory. None of the six biggest manufacturing industries registered growth in July,' says Spence. A reading above 50 percent indicates that the manufacturing sector is generally expanding; below 50 percent indicates that it is generally contracting. A Manufacturing PMI® above 42.3 percent, over a period of time, generally indicates an expansion of the overall economy. Therefore, the July Manufacturing PMI® indicates the overall economy grew for the 63rd straight month after contracting in April 2020. 'The past relationship between the Manufacturing PMI® and the overall economy indicates that the July reading (48 percent) corresponds to a change of plus-1.6 percent in real gross domestic product (GDP) on an annualized basis,' says Spence.

This reading is below the 12-month moving average (48.3 percent) for the New Orders Index, which hasn't indicated consistent growth since a 24-month streak of expansion ended in May 2022. 'Of the six largest manufacturing sectors, none reported increased new orders. Panelists noted continued weak demand, with a 1-to-1.4 ratio of positive comments to those expressing concern about near-term demand. Overall, new orders continue to slow amid tariff uncertainty; which party will pay tariff costs is still the prime issue in negotiations between buyers and sellers,' says Spence. A New Orders Index above 52.1 percent, over time, is generally consistent with an increase in the Census Bureau's series on manufacturing orders (in constant 2000 dollars). The four manufacturing industries that reported growth in new orders in July are: Apparel, Leather & Allied Products; Plastics & Rubber Products; Primary Metals; and Miscellaneous Manufacturing. The eight industries reporting a decline in new orders in June, in order, are: Paper Products; Wood Products; Petroleum & Coal Products; Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Fabricated Metal Products; Machinery; Chemical Products; and Computer & Electronic Products.

Prior to the readings of expansion in January and February, the index was in contraction territory for eight consecutive months, with the previous reading above 50 percent in April 2024 (50.7 percent). Of the six largest manufacturing sectors, two (Petroleum & Coal Products; and Transportation Equipment) reported increased production. 'Production levels in July, while improved, remain fragile amid continuing softness in new orders. Panelists had a 1-to-1.2 ratio of positive to negative comments regarding output,' says Spence. An index above 52.1 percent, over time, is generally consistent with an increase in the Federal Reserve Board's Industrial Production figures. The seven industries reporting growth in production during the month of July — in the following order — are: Apparel, Leather & Allied Products; Textile Mills; Petroleum & Coal Products; Plastics & Rubber Products; Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Miscellaneous Manufacturing; and Transportation Equipment. The six industries reporting a decrease in production in July, in order, are: Paper Products; Machinery; Fabricated Metal Products; Primary Metals; Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components; and Chemical Products.

'The index posted its sixth consecutive month of contraction after expanding in January, with seven straight months of contraction before that. Since May 2022, the Employment Index has contracted in 32 of 39 months. Of the six big manufacturing sectors, none reported expanded employment in July. For every comment on hiring, there were two on reducing head counts — a fairly wide ratio, historically speaking — reflecting companies' continuing focus on accelerating staff reductions due to uncertain near- to mid-term demand. Layoffs were the primary measure, an indication that staff shrinking continues to be urgent,' says Spence. An Employment Index above 50.3 percent, over time, is generally consistent with an increase in the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data on manufacturing employment. Of the 18 manufacturing industries, three reported employment growth in July: Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Miscellaneous Manufacturing; and Plastics & Rubber Products. The 11 industries reporting a decrease in employment in July, in the following order, are: Textile Mills; Printing & Related Support Activities; Paper Products; Primary Metals; Fabricated Metal Products; Computer & Electronic Products; Machinery; Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components; Chemical Products; and Transportation Equipment.

Of the six big industries, two (Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; and Computer & Electronic Products) reported slower supplier deliveries in July. 'The findings in July suggest that supply chain performance is improving as demand is slipping downward,' says Spence. A reading below 50 percent indicates faster deliveries, while a reading above 50 percent indicates slower deliveries. The nine manufacturing industries reporting slower supplier deliveries in July — in the following order — are: Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Furniture & Related Products; Paper Products; Plastics & Rubber Products; Primary Metals; Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components; Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; Computer & Electronic Products; and Fabricated Metal Products. The four industries reporting faster supplier deliveries in July are: Miscellaneous Manufacturing; Transportation Equipment; Chemical Products; and Machinery.

'Of the six big industries, only one (Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products) expanded in July,' says Spence. An Inventories Index greater than 44.5 percent, over time, is generally consistent with expansion in the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) figures on overall manufacturing inventories (in chained 2000 dollars). Of 18 manufacturing industries, the 10 reporting higher inventories in July — listed in order — are: Apparel, Leather & Allied Products; Textile Mills; Paper Products; Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Primary Metals; Plastics & Rubber Products; Miscellaneous Manufacturing; Fabricated Metal Products; Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components; and Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products. The five industries reporting lower inventories in July are: Wood Products; Chemical Products; Computer & Electronic Products; Transportation Equipment; and Machinery.

'Customers' inventory levels in July continued to contract and took a step away from 'about right' territory,' says Spence. (For more information about the Customers' Inventories Index, see the 'Data and Method of Presentation' section below.) The three industries reporting customers' inventories as too high in July are: Wood Products; Miscellaneous Manufacturing; and Transportation Equipment. The 11 industries reporting customers' inventories as too low in July, in order, are: Textile Mills; Printing & Related Support Activities; Primary Metals; Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components; Fabricated Metal Products; Paper Products; Furniture & Related Products; Chemical Products; Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; and Machinery.

The Prices Index has increased 9.9 percentage points over the past six months. In the last five months, the index reached its highest levels since June 2022, when it registered 78.5 percent. All of the six largest manufacturing industries — Machinery; Chemical Products; Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; Computer & Electronic Products; Petroleum & Coal Products; and Transportation Equipment, in that order — reported price increases in July. 'The Prices Index reading continues to be driven by increases in steel and aluminum prices that impact the entire value chain, as well as tariffs applied to many imported goods. Higher prices were reported by 35.4 percent of respondents in July, down substantially from 45.6 percent in June. The share of respondents reporting higher prices had consistently increased from November 2024 (12.2 percent) to April (49.2 percent), which was the highest level since June 2022 (65.2 percent),' says Spence. A Prices Index above 52.8 percent, over time, is generally consistent with an increase in the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Producer Price Index for Intermediate Materials. In July, the 16 industries that reported paying increased prices for raw materials, in order, are: Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Textile Mills; Furniture & Related Products; Primary Metals; Plastics & Rubber Products; Machinery; Wood Products; Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components; Fabricated Metal Products; Miscellaneous Manufacturing; Chemical Products; Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; Computer & Electronic Products; Petroleum & Coal Products; Paper Products; and Transportation Equipment. No industries reported paying decreased prices for raw materials in July.

Of the six largest manufacturing industries, only Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products reported expansion in order backlogs in July. 'Continued contraction in both the New Orders and Backlog of Orders indexes means that trade issues and other geopolitical tensions are still at play. Significant improvement shouldn't be expected until those issues begin to recede,' says Spence. Of the 18 manufacturing industries, the three that reported growth in order backlogs in July are: Furniture & Related Products; Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; and Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components. The eight industries reporting lower backlogs in July — in the following order — are: Paper Products; Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Plastics & Rubber Products; Wood Products; Machinery; Computer & Electronic Products; Fabricated Metal Products; and Chemical Products. Seven industries reported no change in order backlogs.

'Export orders contracted for the fifth consecutive month after growing in January and February. This brief period of expansion followed an 'unchanged' status (a reading of 50 percent), preceded by six straight months of contraction. The continued contraction of new export orders could be indicative of ongoing trade friction and dampened demand,' says Spence. Of the 18 manufacturing industries, the only industry reporting growth in new export orders in July is Furniture & Related Products. The eight industries reporting a decrease in new export orders in July — in the following order — are: Paper Products; Primary Metals; Plastics & Rubber Products; Fabricated Metal Products; Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components; Chemical Products; Miscellaneous Manufacturing; and Machinery.

The July figure of 47.6 percent is an increase of 0.2 percentage point over the reading of 47.4 percent in June. 'Imports are contracting, though at a slower rate. The need to maintain import levels from previous months is lower, due in large part to slackening demand and tariff pricing,' says Spence. The five industries reporting an increase in import volumes in July are: Textile Mills; Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; Plastics & Rubber Products; Miscellaneous Manufacturing; and Fabricated Metal Products. The six industries that reported lower volumes of imports in July — in the following order — are: Wood Products; Petroleum & Coal Products; Paper Products; Computer & Electronic Products; Chemical Products; and Machinery. Seven industries reported no change in imports in July.

The national report's information reflects the entire U.S., while the regional reports contain primarily regional data from their local vicinities. Also, the information in the regional reports is not used in calculating the results of the national report. The information compiled in this report is for the month of July 2025. The data presented herein is obtained from a survey of manufacturing supply executives based on information they have collected within their respective organizations. ISM® makes no representation, other than that stated within this release, regarding the individual company data collection procedures. The data should be compared to all other economic data sources when used in decision-making. Data and Method of PresentationThe Manufacturing ISM® Report On Business® is based on data compiled from purchasing and supply executives nationwide. The composition of the Manufacturing Business Survey Committee is stratified according to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and each of the following NAICS-based industries' contribution to gross domestic product (GDP): Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; Textile Mills; Apparel, Leather & Allied Products; Wood Products; Paper Products; Printing & Related Support Activities; Petroleum & Coal Products; Chemical Products; Plastics & Rubber Products; Nonmetallic Mineral Products; Primary Metals; Fabricated Metal Products; Machinery; Computer & Electronic Products; Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components; Transportation Equipment; Furniture & Related Products; and Miscellaneous Manufacturing (products such as medical equipment and supplies, jewelry, sporting goods, toys and office supplies). The data is weighted based on each industry's contribution to GDP. According to BEA estimates (the average of the fourth quarter 2023 GDP estimate and the GDP estimates for first, second, and third quarter 2024, as released on December 19, 2024), the six largest manufacturing industries are: Chemical Products; Transportation Equipment; Computer & Electronic Products; Food, Beverage & Tobacco Products; Machinery; and Petroleum & Coal Products. Survey responses reflect the change, if any, in the current month compared to the previous month. For nine indicators (New Orders, Backlog of Orders, New Export Orders, Imports, Production, Supplier Deliveries, Inventories, Employment, and Prices), this report shows the percentage reporting each response, the net difference between the number of responses in the positive economic direction (higher, better and slower for Supplier Deliveries) and the negative economic direction (lower, worse and faster for Supplier Deliveries), and the diffusion index. For Customers' Inventories, respondents report their assessment of their customers' stock levels of respondent companies' products this month (rather than last month): too high, about right, and too low. Responses are raw data and are never changed. The diffusion index includes the percent of positive responses plus one-half of those responding the same (considered positive). The resulting single index number for those meeting the criteria for seasonal adjustments (Manufacturing PMI®, New Orders, Production, Employment and Inventories) is then seasonally adjusted to allow for the effects of repetitive intra-year variations resulting primarily from normal differences in weather conditions, various institutional arrangements, and differences attributable to non-moveable holidays. All seasonal adjustment factors are subject annually to relatively minor changes when conditions warrant them. The Manufacturing PMI® is a composite index based on the diffusion indexes of five of the indexes with equal weights: New Orders (seasonally adjusted), Production (seasonally adjusted), Employment (seasonally adjusted), Supplier Deliveries, and Inventories (seasonally adjusted). Diffusion indexes have the properties of leading indicators and are convenient summary measures showing the prevailing direction of change and the scope of change. A Manufacturing PMI® reading above 50 percent indicates that the manufacturing economy is generally expanding; below 50 percent indicates that it is generally declining. A Manufacturing PMI® above 42.3 percent, over a period of time, indicates that the overall economy, or gross domestic product (GDP), is generally expanding; below 42.3 percent, it is generally declining. The distance from 50 percent or 42.3 percent is indicative of the extent of the expansion or decline. With some of the indicators within this report, ISM® has indicated the departure point between expansion and decline of comparable government series, as determined by regression analysis. For the Customers' Inventories Index, numerically, a reading: above 50 percent is 'too high,' equal to 50 percent is 'about right,' and below 50 percent is 'too low.' However, in practice and in the context of other data, customers' inventories may be considered to be 'about right' if the diffusion index is between 52 percent (the high side of about right) and 48 percent (the low side of about right). The Manufacturing ISM® Report On Business® survey is sent out to Manufacturing Business Survey Committee respondents the first part of each month. Respondents are asked to report on information for the current month for U.S. operations only. ISM® receives survey responses throughout most of any given month, with the majority of respondents generally waiting until late in the month to submit responses to give the most accurate picture of current business activity. ISM® then compiles the report for release on the first business day of the following month. The industries reporting growth, as indicated in the Manufacturing ISM® Report On Business® monthly report, are listed in the order of most growth to least growth. For the industries reporting contraction or decreases, those are listed in the order of the highest level of contraction/decrease to the least level of contraction/decrease. Responses to Buying Policy reflect the percent reporting the current month's lead time, the approximate weighted number of days ahead for which commitments are made for Capital Expenditures; Production Materials; and Maintenance, Repair and Operating (MRO) Supplies, expressed as hand-to-mouth (five days), 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, six months (180 days), a year or more (360 days), and the weighted average number of days. These responses are raw data, never revised, and not seasonally adjusted.
