On Saturday, the National Bureau of Statistics will release the purchasing managers' index for March. The index is an indicator of manufacturing activity. A reading above 50 indicates growth, while a reading below signals contraction. The PMI came in at 50.3 in February, compared with 51.3 in January. Despite the slowdown, the manufacturing PMI has stayed above the boom-bust line for 19 straight months.
