📊 Upcoming PMI Report Analysis 📈

PMI Report Update

The PMI Services report is due out in approximately 2 hours. Last month, the index rose from 50.6% to 53.4%. This month, the forecast is slightly lower at 53%.

There is not a significant difference between the actual figure from last month and the forecast. However, the key point is that the figure is above 50.

In general, a higher than expected reading is likely to lead to a rise in the dollar index, while a lower than expected reading is likely to lead to a fall in the dollar index.

If the actual figure is in line with the forecast or there is no significant difference from last month, we do not expect any major market reaction.
