US Flash PMI signals faster manufacturing expansion in March
The expansion of the U.S. manufacturing sector strengthened to the second-fastest pace in almost a year during March. This was signalled by the Markit Flash U.S. Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index , which is based on around 85% of usual monthly replies, rising to 54.9 from 54.3 in February, consistent with a solid rate of growth overall.
