U.S. service sector growth slowed by more than anticipated in the month of March, according to a report released by the Institute for Supply Management on Thursday.
The ISM said its services PMI fell to 50.8 in March after inching up to 53.5 in February. While a reading above 50 still indicates growth, economists had expected the index to show a more modest decrease to 53.0.
With the bigger than expected decrease, the services PMI dropped to its lowest level since hitting 49.2 in June 2024. The decline by the headline index partly reflected a notable downturn by employment in the service sector.
The employment index tumbled to 46.2 in March after rising to 53.9 in February, indicating the first contraction since September 2024.
