US ISM Manufacturing PMI releases at 48.7 vs 49.0, a small miss – Market reactions

[Ben Graham]

Markets just received the report for the US ISM Manufacturing data, which missed slightly on expectations – The monthly release came at 48.7 vs 49.0 consensus – Still in contraction territory.

US manufacturing is closely monitored by participants since US President Trump's mandate to bring back US production on top – his bet still has to show more results as the ISM Manufacturing PMI is still below the key 50.0 mark.

Despite the rebound from the prior 48.0 report, Tariffs are still showing that they can bite and influence data quite largely.
