Factories in Asia became more active in September, supported by the global surge in artificial intelligence and increased demand for chips and related goods, especially in South Korea and Taiwan, where purchasing managers' indices reached their highest levels in several years.

Overall, the data reflects an improvement in the manufacturing sector, despite ongoing cost pressures.
