- Flash Manufacturing PMI: Sunday, 23:00. The index continues to post readings just over the 51-level, which points to stagnation. The August release came in at 51.3 and little change is expected in the September reading.
- Flash Services PMI: Sunday, 23:00. The services PMI slipped to 49.2 in August, the first time the index has been in contraction territory since May. This soft reading points to weakness in the business sector. Will we see any improvement in September?
