Hong Kong’s manufacturing sector strengthened in June, with the S&P Global Manufacturing PMI rising to 52.0, up from 50.4 in May 2026. The latest reading, released on 6 July 2026, marks a second consecutive month above the 50-point threshold that separates expansion from contraction, signaling a firmer improvement in operating conditions for the city’s manufacturers.
The move from 50.4 to 52.0 suggests that growth in activity has not only been maintained but has gathered momentum over the month. With the PMI now more comfortably in expansionary territory, the June data point to a broader-based recovery in Hong Kong’s factory sector compared with the marginal improvement seen in May 2026.
