SHARES declined on Tuesday after a survey showed the country’s manufacturing activity went down last month and as investors stayed on the sidelines ahead of the release of April inflation data on Wednesday.
The Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) lost 10.13 points or 0.15% to close at 6,359.15 on Tuesday, while the broader all shares index went down by 16.18 points or 0.41% to finish at 3,906.82.
“The bourse ended slightly lower as investors digested the recently released factory activity for the month of April,” Timson Securities, Inc. Trader Darren Blaine T. Pangan said in a Viber message.
