China Manufacturing PMI Softens Again, in Contraction for 6 Months

From Mish's Blog:

China shows modest deterioration in operating conditions during May according to HSBC Flash China Manufacturing PMI.

Commenting on the Flash China Manufacturing PMI survey, Hongbin Qu, Chief Economist, China & Co-Head of Asian Economic Research at HSBC said:

“Manufacturing activities softened again in May, reflecting the deteriorating export situation. This calls for more aggressive policy easing, as inflation continues to slow. Beijing policy makers have been and will step up easing efforts to stabilize growth, as indicated by a slew of measures to boost liquidity, public housing and infrastructure investment and consumption.

As long as the easing measures filter through, China will secure a soft landing in the coming quarters.
