GET READY: Thousands Of Companies Around The World Will Reveal The Truth About The Economy

HEADS UP: The world's biggest economies will be releasing their September manufacturing PMI reports. And this is our scorecard.

Today's reporting action will kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET when Australia releases it's PMI numbers.

Already, we know that manufacturing activity is accelerating in China and Japan as signaled by their rising PMI numbers.

Investors will be particularly interested to see how the emerging Asian economies are doing especially considering the volatility in their currencies.

Europe continues to be a bit of a wildcard as political instability threatens to derail the region's fragile recovery.

In the U.S., all signs point to growth, but decelerating growth. Also, if the U.S. government shuts down as expected, the available economic information will be limited, making these PMI report something to be more scrutinized.
