Por qué importa
These surveys come out before the national ISM and PMI, so traders use them as early clues to the month. The New York (Empire State) and Philadelphia surveys, released mid-month, get the most attention; components such as prices paid and new orders give early signals on inflation and demand.
Cómo se calcula
Firms report whether conditions improved or worsened; the index is the percentage reporting increases minus the percentage reporting decreases. Zero is the dividing line (except the Chicago PMI, where it is 50).
Index = % reporting increase − % reporting decreaseQué significan los cambios
- Readings swing widely month to month; several surveys moving together are more meaningful.
- Expectations six months ahead show how confident firms feel.
Mayor de lo esperado: A stronger figure than expected points to a healthier economy: it usually supports the US dollar and local stocks, and can push bond yields up.
Menor de lo esperado: A weaker figure than expected points to slowing activity: the US dollar tends to soften and markets price in lower rates.
Una breve historia
The Philadelphia Fed's Manufacturing Business Outlook Survey began in 1968, the Empire State survey in 2001; the other regional banks added theirs over the following decades.
