The growth of China's non-manufacturing sector slowed in January, as indicated by the drop of the Purchasing Managers Index (PMI), the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing (CFLP) said Friday.
The non-manufacturing sector's PMI, a key economic indicator, fell to 52.9 percent in January from 56 percent one month earlier, the CFLP said.
A PMI reading above 50 percent indicates expansion from the previous month, while below indicates contraction. |
