| Abstract: | The October U.S. Institute for Supply Management (ISM) manufacturing index rose to 55.7 from 52.6 the month before--better than the 53.0 the markets had expected. It was also much stronger than the 38.7 seen a year ago. Employment rose to 53.1 from 46.2, while prices paid increased to 65.0 from 63.5. New orders were down to 58.5 from 60.8 but still above the 50-point benchmark neutral rate, indicating growth. The better-than-expected headline reading with stronger pricing data will likely add to strength in equities and weigh on Treasuries today.
