United States Non Manufacturing PMI

The United States Non-Manufacturing PMI fell by 3.8% to 50 points in September 2025, its lowest level in four months. This decline was driven by a contraction in business activity to 49.9 from 55 and slower growth in new orders which dropped to 50.4 from 56. Employment remained in contraction at 47.2 due to hiring delays and difficulties finding qualified staff. Tariffs also increased operating expenses, contributing to ongoing price pressures. United States' record low Non Manufacturing PMI was 41.7 in April 2020 and record high was 67.6 in November 2021.

The index is calculated from survey data on business activity, new orders, employment, supplier deliveries and inventories.
