“The ISM non-manufacturing index is expected to advance modestly to 54.0 in August following two consecutive declines that have led the index to 53.7 — the lowest since 2016. This would come on the heels of a sharply lower ISM manufacturing print for August and would suggest the services sector remains largely healthy despite the worsening outlook for the industrial sector.”
