US Service Sector Growth Slows in March ISM Report
The March ISM Non-Manufacturing Report indicates a slower but still expanding non-manufacturing sector in the US. Most industries experienced growth, while the retail sector contracted. The employment market showed strong performance, and inflation pressures remained manageable. Labor shortages and trade war impacts are easing, contributing to a positive long-term outlook. However, potential risks warrant continued monitoring. The report suggests a resilient but moderating expansion in the non-manufacturing sector, with underlying strengths in employment and controlled inflation, despite some sectoral weaknesses.
