Purchasing Managers’ Indexes showed manufacturing activity contracting in China for a second consecutive month,while export driven economies in North Asia – Japan, South Korea and Taiwan – have been in pain for longer.
The Bank of Japan and the European Central Bank have flagged their readiness to ease policy in the past week, despite having far less room than the Fed to do so.
