The reading tallies with an official services PMI released on Wednesday, suggesting a robust recovery in the sector is well under way. Thanks to the COVID reopening, business confidence across China’s services sector remained robust last month, though the degree of optimism slipped slightly from January’s near 12-year highs. “The economy has entered a post-COVID recovery, with services activity showing signs of a stronger recovery than the manufacturing sector,” said Wang Zhe, an economist at Caixin Insight Group.

The Caixin PMI is compiled by S&P Global based on responses to questions sent to purchasing managers in China.

Sub-indexes of factory output, employment and new export orders all fell at a sharper pace in November from October, the private Caixin survey showed. The Caixin manufacturing PMI centres on small firms and coastal regions, which includes a number of exporters.

The Caixin/S&P Global manufacturing purchasing managers' index (PMI) stood at 49.2 in October, up from 48.1 in September and slightly above analysts' expectations for 49.0. In line with China's official PMI, which unexpectedly fell into contraction last month, waning factory activity weighed on the fragile recovery of the world's second-biggest economy amid a deepening property crisis and weakening demand. The softer activity continued to pressure the labour market as the manufacturing employment fell for the seventh month in a row. "In particular, the spread of the coronavirus in many regions significantly restricts both supply and demand," Wang said.
