UK August flash services PMI 53.6 vs 51.8 expected * Prior 51.8 * Manufacturing PMI 47.3 vs 48.3 expected * Prior 48.0 * Composite PMI 53.0 vs 51.6 expected * Prior 51.5 Key Findings: * Strongest rise in UK private sector business activity since August 2024 Comment: Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist at S&P Global Market Intelligence: “The flash UK PMI survey for August indicated that the pace of economic growth has continued to accelerate over the summer after a sluggish spring, the rate of expansion now at a one-year high. The services sector has led the expansion, but manufacturing also showed further signs of stabilising. "It’s evident from survey measures of order books, however, that the demand environment remains both uneven and fragile. Companies report concerns over the impact of recent government policy changes, as well as unease emanating from broader geopolitical uncertainty. Goods exports are still falling especially sharply. "Payroll numbers also continue to be cut at an aggressive rate by historical standards as firms cite weak order books and concerns over rising staff costs due to the policies announced in the autumn Budget, which also contributed to persistent inflation pressures. "While the rise in business activity signalled by the PMI alongside the uplift in inflation to 3.8% in July lower the chances of further rate cuts this year, more data are required to assess both the sustainability of robust economic growth as well as the stickiness of the upturn in price pressures. Among a divided Bank of England rate setting committee, the perceived need for any future rate cuts will be very much data dependent."

US services activity flatlined in July, ISM data shows (Reuters) -U.S. services sector activity unexpectedly flatlined in July with little change in orders and a further weakening in employment even as input costs climbed by the most in nearly three years, underscoring the ongoing drag of uncertainty over the Trump administration’s tariff policy on businesses. The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) said on Tuesday its nonmanufacturing purchasing managers index (PMI) slipped to 50.1 last month from 50.8 in June. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast the services PMI would rise to 51.5. A PMI reading above 50 indicates growth in the services sector, which accounts for more than two-thirds of the economy. Economists say businesses continue to struggle to digest the aggressive tariffs President Donald Trump is imposing on goods imported from abroad. Last week Trump, ahead of a self-imposed deadline of August 1, issued a barrage of notices informing scores of trading partners of higher import taxes set to be imposed on their exports to the U.S. With tariff rates ranging from 10% to 41% on imports to the U.S. set to kick in on August 7, the Budget Lab at Yale now estimates the average overall U.S. tariff rate has shot up to 18.3%, the highest since 1934, from between 2% and 3% before Trump returned to the White House in January. The ISM survey’s new orders measure declined to 50.3 last month from 51.3 in June, with export orders falling back into contraction for the fourth time in five months. The survey’s measure of services employment fell to 46.4, the lowest level since March, from 47.2 in June. It has contracted in four of the last five months, and the reading followed the release last week of the Labor Department’s surprisingly soft U.S. employment report. Not only was job creation softer than expected in July, previously reported job growth for May and June was revised lower by 258,000 positions, marking the biggest net downward revision on record outside of the COVID-19 pandemic. The outsized revision led Trump to fire the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner on Friday. Price pressures, meanwhile, continue to mount. The survey’s prices paid index rose to 69.9, the highest level since October 2022, from 67.5 in June. Inflation until now has largely remained moderate because businesses have been selling merchandise accumulated before import duties came into effect, but data last week showed prices in some categories of goods like home furnishings and recreational gear have begun rising briskly. More benign inflation from the services sector has helped keep overall inflation in check, but the ISM data brings into question whether that trend will continue or further fan concerns about the emergence of stagflation. Two Fed governors - Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman - dissented, saying they believed the job market was facing the greater risk - a position seemingly validated by Friday’s weak employment data. They believe competition and softening demand will blunt some of the anticipated price hikes from tariffs and argue the Fed should be lowering rates now to reduce the restraint they are imposing on activity.

Russia’s services sector contracts in June for first time in a year Investing.com -- Russia’s services sector entered contraction territory in June for the first time in a year, according to a business survey released Thursday. The S&P Global Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) for Russia’s services sector dropped to 49.2 in June from 52.2 in May. The decline in output was attributed to a less pronounced increase in new orders and weaker client demand. While the rate of contraction was described as slight, S&P Global noted it compared unfavorably with the solid growth pace seen on average throughout the history of the series.

China’s services activity growth hits 9-month low in June, shows Caixin PMI By Liangping Gao and Ryan Woo BEIJING (Reuters) -China’s services activity expanded at the slowest pace in nine months in June, as demand weakened and new export orders declined amid a fragile trade truce with the United States, a private-sector survey showed on Thursday. The Caixin/S&P Global services purchasing managers’ index (PMI), fell to 50.6 from 51.1 in May, marking the weakest expansion since September 2024 but remaining above the 50-mark separating expansion from contraction. The reading was broadly in line with China’s official survey, which showed services activity easing slightly to 50.1 from 50.2 the previous month. The Caixin PMI is considered a better read of trends among smaller, export-oriented firms, particularly along the east coast, while the official PMI primarily tracks large and medium-sized enterprises, including state-owned companies. "Recently, major macroeconomic indicators have shown divergence, with consumption in certain sectors increasing beyond expectations, while the momentum of growth in investment and industrial production has weakened," said Wang Zhe, Senior Economist at Caixin Insight Group. "We must recognise that the external environment remains severe and complex, with increasing uncertainties. The issue of insufficient effective demand at home has yet to be fundamentally resolved," Wang added. Deepening deflationary pressures and a persistent property crisis continued to undercut demand and growth in the world’s second-largest economy. While the U.S. and China have settled on a framework trade deal, analysts expect eventual U.S. tariffs to remain well above historic levels, maintaining pressure on exporters and officials to find alternative markets or boost domestic demand. Expansion in both supply and demand moderated in June, with the new orders sub-index slowing. External uncertainties weighed on service exports, leading to a decline in new export business for the second consecutive month, the fastest rate of contraction since December 2022. Service providers remained cautious on hiring, leading the employment sub-index to decline in June after a previous increase. This led to the fastest accumulation of outstanding business in a year. A slower increase in average input costs, combined with competitive pressures, resulted in the steepest decline in output charges in over three years in June, suggesting intense market competition. The Caixin China General Composite PMI rose to 51.3 in June from 49.6 the previous month. With valuations skyrocketing in 2024, many investors are uneasy putting more money into stocks.

China May services activity grows despite US tariff concerns, Caixin PMI shows BEIJING (Reuters) - China’s services activity expanded at a slightly faster pace in May, with new orders growing more quickly than in April, though new export orders declined due to uncertainty stemming from U.S. tariffs, a private sector survey showed on Thursday. The Caixin/S&P Global services purchasing managers’ index (PMI), rose to 51.1 in May from 50.7, remaining above the 50-mark that separates expansion from contraction. The reading was broadly in line with China’s official survey, which showed services activity edging up to 50.2 from 50.1 the previous month. The Caixin PMI is considered a better read of trends among smaller, export-oriented firms, particularly along the east coast, while the official PMI primarily tracks large and medium-sized enterprises, including state-owned companies. China’s economy grew faster than expected in the first quarter, and the government has maintained its annual growth target of around 5%. However, analysts warn that U.S. tariffs could significantly dampen momentum. Beijing and Washington have agreed to a 90-day pause during which both would cut import tariffs, raising hopes of easing tensions. Yet investors remain concerned that negotiations could progress slowly amid persistent global economic risks. "On the external demand front, new export orders remained sluggish in both the manufacturing and services sectors. Average costs for businesses rose slightly, but selling prices continued to weaken, increasing profit pressure," said Zhe Wang, senior economist at Caixin Insight Group. However, faster services growth failed to offset a drop in manufacturing production. The Caixin China General Composite PMI fell to 49.6 from 51.1 the previous month, marking the first contraction since December 2022. Last month, the central bank eased monetary policy to limit damage from the trade war with Washington, and lowered the ceiling for deposit rates to offset margin pressure on banks and prompt savers to spend or invest more. Both supply and demand expanded at a slightly quicker pace, as businesses sought to attract new clients. However, foreign demand weakened due to U.S.-China tariff uncertainty, with new export orders declining for the first time this year, the survey showed. Employment-related indices remained slightly above the 50-mark. Some firms continued to reduce headcounts to cut costs, while others hired more workers to meet rising demand. Service sector businesses faced the fastest input cost inflation since October 2024, driven by higher purchase prices and wages. Average output charges declined for the fourth month in a row in May. Overall sentiment over the next 12 months remained positive in the sector, with companies optimistic that the negative effects of U.S. tariffs may diminish over time. "In terms of policy, the lasting impact of earlier consumption-stimulating measures needs further evaluation," Wang added "More importantly, boosting domestic demand should be grounded in improving household incomes."

India services sector growth steady in May as demand remains strong, PMI shows BENGALURU (Reuters) -India’s dominant services sector maintained its robust growth in May, fueled by strong export demand and record hiring, although price pressures intensified, a survey showed on Wednesday. The HSBC India Services Purchasing Managers’ Index, compiled by S&P Global, stood at 58.8 in May, marginally up from April’s 58.7 but lower than a preliminary reading of 61.2. It has been above the 50-mark separating growth from contraction for nearly four years. New business - a key gauge for demand - expanded at a sharp pace in May, largely aligned with growth rates seen from February through April. Companies attributed this sustained momentum to advertising efforts, positive demand trends and repeat business from existing clients. This healthy demand environment was particularly evident in international markets, with companies reporting one of the strongest increases in export orders in the survey’s over a decade history. To accommodate the ongoing expansion, service providers ramped up hiring at the fastest rate since the survey began in 2005, with nearly 16% of respondents increasing staff numbers. That, however, contributed to rising cost pressures. Both input costs and output charges increased at faster rates in May, edging above historical averages. Companies reported higher expenses for cooking oil, materials, meat and overtime payments, leading to the strongest input price inflation since January. Growing price pressures could test monetary policy decisions for the Reserve Bank of India (NSE:BOI) (RBI), which has cut the repo rate by 50 basis points this year as inflation remains below its 4.0% target. The RBI is expected to cut rates by another 25 bps to 5.75% on Friday, according to a Reuters poll. Despite cost challenges, business confidence recovered from April’s 23-month low, with companies expressing optimism about future growth based on their expanded workforces, larger client bases and ongoing marketing initiatives. Meanwhile, the HSBC India Composite PMI Output Index, which includes both manufacturing and services, eased slightly to 59.3 in May from 59.7 in April but indicated continued strong expansion in private sector activity.
