Key investment points:
In November, Caixin manufacturing PMI fell below the boom and bust line. The manufacturing PMI of Caixin China in November released on December 1 recorded 49.9, down 0.7 percentage points from October, and again below the boom and bust line after August, reflecting the slowdown in the repair process of the manufacturing industry. This trend deviated from the official manufacturing PMI released the day before. The manufacturing PMI released by the National Bureau of statistics in November recorded 50.1, up 0.9 percentage points from October, ending the contraction trend for two consecutive months and returning to the expansion range.
Overall, Caixin's manufacturing outlook was basically stable in November. In terms of production and supply, the production capacity began to repair after the power supply shortage was alleviated and the cost pressure of enterprises was relieved under the decline of bulk commodities. However, affected by demand, the repair range of supply is limited and the foundation is not solid enough. The production and operation of enterprises still receive certain cost constraints, superimposed with weak domestic demand, and the downward pressure on the economy may still exist.
