China’s private factories beat forecasts, but price cuts squeeze confidence
China’s RatingDog manufacturing PMI reached 52.0 in October, above the 51.6 Reuters-poll forecast but slightly below September’s 52.1, InvestingLive reports. Output grew at its fastest pace since April, contrasting with the official survey’s contraction. The strength came with discounting: factory-gate and export prices fell, while confidence hit a nine-month low. The surveys cover different firms, so the private-sector result qualifies rather than overturns the broader slowdown.

Australia’s dwelling approvals rebound, while house approvals fall
Australian dwelling approvals rose 5.1% in September to 17,948, reversing August’s 5.2% fall, the ABS reports. The rebound was uneven: private houses fell 5.3%, while private dwellings excluding houses rose 16.6%. Residential approval value also fell 2.8%. The headline recovery therefore masks weaker house approvals and a different mix of projects; these figures measure permits, not completed homes.

Otra perspectiva: Limitation: approvals are permits that allow construction to begin, rather than completed dwellings.

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand held its OCR at 2.75 percent on October 28, with four members favouring a hold and three a 25-basis-point increase. Annual inflation slowed to 3.7 percent in the September quarter from 4.1 percent in June. The Committee nevertheless expects 4.4 percent in December, largely reflecting fuel futures prices. It says tighter policy is likely but conditional on the outlook, as domestic demand remains subdued and the economic recovery uneven.
