Global Basic Materials PMI: Output falls in May
Markit's newly released global sector PMI data signalled that output of basic materials declined slightly in May, following a similarly mild contraction in April. Of the eight broad industry groups covered by the PMIs, basic materials was unusual in being the only sector to see a drop in activity with the exception of the smaller telecommunication services industry.
