The newly released US Q2 2026 ISM Services Supplier Deliveries Index dropped to 55.2 from the previous 56.8. Although some external reports mistakenly cited the latest data as 56.8, authoritative figures show that the worsening of delivery delays has slightly slowed. However, impacted by the Middle East war and high oil prices, the overall Services PMI dipped to 53.6, while the Prices Index remained high at 70.7, highlighting strong inflation stickiness.
