CH Manufacturing PMI
It's a leading indicator of economic health - businesses react quickly to market conditions, and their purchasing managers hold perhaps the most current and relevant insight into the company's view of the economy;
Above 50.0 indicates industry expansion, below indicates contraction. Tends to have more impact when it's released ahead of the RatingDog Manufacturing PMI because the reports are tightly correlated. Chinese data can have a broad impact on commodity markets due to China's influence on global demand;
