left-rated reports from The Independent (US) and The Hamilton Spectator led with the return of factory activity to expansion, framing it as a positive sign for China's economy and officials' efforts

These reports carried details on the official PMI rising to 50.1 from 49.8, the production subindex increasing, and the new orders subindex being slightly down. They also mentioned the separate RatingDog PMI showing an advance to 52.1. The reports included commentary from Lynn Song, chief economist for Greater China at ING Bank, who stated that manufacturing has been a relative strength driven by external demand, while domestic consumption and investment lag. These reports also mentioned economists' beliefs that China is on track to surpass its record trade surplus and that improved US-China relations could help bilateral trade."],"centre":["The centre-rated outlets reported that China's official manufacturing PMI rose to 50.1 in September, indicating a return to expansion after three months of contraction.
