According to the Institute for Supply Management (ISM), the index of business activity in the US manufacturing sector (ISM Manufacturing) unexpectedly fell to 46 points in June (from 46.9 points a month earlier). 


Experts on average expected the index to rise to 47 points. And as you know, the indicator value below 50 points indicates a decline in activity in the sector. The index has remained below this mark for eight months in a row. Analysts note that the current decline was recorded against the background of a reduction in production and a weakening of optimism about the prospects for the second half of the year.


The inventory subindex decreased in June to 44 points (from 45.8 points in May), the production indicator – to 46.7 points (from 51.1 points in May), employment – to 48.1 points (from 51.4 points in May).
