Chart of the Day: Electronics PMI continues its uptrend in March

It recorded an increase of 0.4 point from the previous month.

The electronics sector Purchasing Managers' Index continued its positive growth in March, at a faster expansion at 51.8.

The latest readings of the sector indicated the continued strength of recovery, with expansion registered for the 8th consecutive month.

According to the Singapore Institute of Purchasing & Materials Management, the faster rate of expansion is attributed to higher electronic factory output, new orders, new exports, and higher inventory level.

Meanwhile, imports as well as electronics supplier deliveries and order backlog also recorded faster growth rate.

However, both electronics employment and finished goods stocks ended the month with a slower rate of expansion.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
