business activity and less intense rolling power cuts during the festive season. Absa Group Ltd.'s Purchasing Managers' Index, compiled by the Bureau for Economic Research, climbed to 50.9 from 48.2 in November, the lender said in a statement on Monday. The gauge, which tracks manufacturing sentiment in the country, rose above the 50 mark for the first time since April, effectively escaping a contraction in an industry that accounts about 14% of Africa's most industrialized economy. Business-Activity Push The advance was largely driven by an increase in the business-activity index which rose to 51.4, up from 46 the prior month. Conversely, new-sales orders declined to 46.3 from 46.6. Although South Africa has felt the impacts of rolling power outages less harshly owing to businesses going the self-generation route, logistical woes brought on by state railway and ports operator Transnet SOC Ltd. have added to the cost of doing business and continue to weigh on profitability.
