China’s manufacturing activity fell for a third consecutive month in July, according to an official survey, increasing pressure on policymakers to speed up stimulus measures to boost the world’s second-biggest economy.

The country’s official manufacturing purchasing managers’ index came in at 49.4 for last month, in line with a Bloomberg poll of analysts’ forecasts and down from 49.5 in June. A reading above 50 marks an expansion compared with the previous month.
