The Purchasing Leader Index indicates the economic health of the manufacturing sector and is based on five major indicators: new orders, inventory levels, production, supplier deliveries, and the employment environment. An index value above 50 percent signifies positive development in the industrial sector, whereas a value below 50 percent represents a negative situation.
