However, the Caixin Manufacturing PMI sank in September to 49.3 from the former reading of 50.4. A figure below the 50.0 threshold is itself considered as contraction in activities in the manufacturing sector.
Meanwhile, the US Dollar (USD) exhibits a weak performance ahead of the Federal Reserve's (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell's speech, which is scheduled at 17:00 GMT. Investors would look for fresh cues about the likely monetary policy action from the Fed in November.
According to the CME FedWatch tool, the probability of the Fed to reduce interest rates by 50 basis points (bps) to 4.25%-4.50% in November has eased sharply to 38.3% from 53% last week. Market speculation for Fed large rate cuts eased after the release of the United States (US) core Personal Consumption Expenditure Price Index (PCE) data on Friday, which rose expectedly to 2.7% in August from 2.6% in July.
