The services PMIs for the U.S. show significant sector growth. More growth picked up in January as new orders increased and employment rebounded.
The services PMI increased to 53.4 last month from 50.5 in December. A reading above 50 indicates growth in the services industry, which accounts for more than twothirds of the economy.
The report suggests that economic growth momentum from the fourth quarter continues, reassuring that cuts in March will not take place. The Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged last week, but Chair Jerome Powell told reporters that rates had peaked.
