JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - The South African central bank's leading business cycle indicator rose 1 percent month-on-month in November, mainly due to an increase in the average number of hours worked in the manufacturing sector, a report showed on Tuesday. The indicator collates data such as vehicle sales, job advertisements, business confidence and money supply to gauge the economic outlook.
