US January final Markit manufacturing PMI 55.5 vs 55.5 expected

Manufacturing survey from Markit

• Highest since March 2015
• Preliminary reading was 55.5
• Prior was 55.1
• New orders 56.8 vs 55.9 prior -- one year high
• Output 56.2 vs 55.9 prior

There has been a smidge of weakness in the regional numbers but there's nothing to confirm that here. The ISM manufacturing survey is due at the top of the hour.
