China Services PMI  2012-2017 | Data | Chart | Calendar | Forecast | News

The Caixin China Services PMI unexpectedly declined to 50.6 in September of 2017 from 52.7 in August, way below market consensus of 53.1. The reading pointed to the weakest pace of expansion in the service sector since December 2015, as both new orders and employment rose at a slower pace and confidence softened. Also, the level of outstanding work at Chinese services companies declined during September, after a four-month sequence of accumulation. On the price front, input cost inflation picked up for the second month in a row while output charges set by services companies rose only slightly during September. Services PMI in China is reported by Markit Economics.
