Credit moved tighter yesterday as markets reacted positively to encouraging economic data from both sides of the Atlantic. Data showed US manufacturing expanding at its fastest rate in seven months, with German manufacturing also returning to growth, while declines in Spain and Italy slowed. European credit has opened largely flat this morning.
