Malaysian manufacturing activity fell in November from the
previous month as the sector continued to contract -- production and new orders
falling at steep pace --a private survey by Nikkei and research firm Markit
shows. The Nikkei manufacturing purchasing managers index came in at 47.0, down
from 48.1 in October, signaling the sharpest rate of deterioration in operating
conditions at Malaysian manufacturers since the survey began in July 2012. A
reading above 50 indicates an expansion in manufacturing activity; below, a
contraction. (Saurabh.Chaturvedi@wsj.com; @journosaurabh)
