VOV.VN - The S&P Global Vietnam Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) dropped to 46.4 in December 2022 from 47.4 in November, indicating the continued deterioration of business conditions in manufacturing.

Although business conditions in the Vietnamese manufacturing sector continued to improve at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Vietnam Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) grew the slightest in 13 months.

The Vietnamese manufacturing sector remained in growth territory at the start of the third quarter of the year, but there were some signs of demand softening, according to a survey released on August 8 by S&P Global.

The Vietnam Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) dropped to 51.7 in March from 54.3 in February, as the latest wave of the COVID-19 pandemic led to widespread labour shortages in the manufacturing sector during March, according to S&P Global.

The Vietnamese manufacturing sector remained in recovery mode in February, seeing growth accelerate further and confidence maintained, according to the latest report of IHS Markit.

Vietnam's manufacturing industry recorded a steady increase in output and orders in January while the number of jobs also rose for the second consecutive month, according to a newly released report of London-based information provider IHS Markit.

VOV.VN - Latest economic data for the final quarter of 2021 are showing signs of recovering economic momentum, and the IHS Markit Vietnam manufacturing purchasing managers' index (PMI) for October 2021 indicated a strong rebound in the manufacturing sector.

VOV.VN - The COVID-19 outbreaks in Ho Chi Minh City and many southern provinces are destroying the "health" of local businesses and hindering economic recovery, meaning the economic growth target of 6.5% set by the Government has never been as difficult and challenging as it is now.

Vietnam’s manufacturing sector gained growth pace at the end of the first quarter, with marked increases in output, new orders and exports, leading to stronger rises in employment and purchasing activity, according to a report by the London-based global information provider IHS Markit.

Business activities in the Vietnamese manufacturing sector improved, as the number of new orders jumped in February due to the rising demand from the global market, which, in turn, saw firms raising output, staffing levels and purchasing activity.
