New orders rose in May although this series remains in contraction.
- The manufacturing sector in South Korea continued to contract in May, the latest survey from S&P Global revealed on Thursday with a manufacturing PMI score of 48.8.

- Manufacturing business conditions in China improved for the first time in three months during May, according to latest PMI data. Production expanded at the quickest rate in nearly a year, supported by a fresh rise in overall new business amid reports of firmer client demand.

At the same time, further improvements in supplier capacity helped to shorten average delivery times and ease cost pressures.
