ISM Services Survey Shows Growth Deceleration; S&P Data Indicate Return to Expansion

Two surveys released Tuesday painted a mixed picture of the US services sector in April, with Institute for Supply Management data showing a deceleration in growth and an S&P Global (SPGI) report indicating a return to expansion.The ISM's purchasing managers' index fell to 53.6 last month from 54 in March. The consensus was for a 53.7 print in a survey compiled by Bloomberg. A reading above 50 indicates the services sector economy is generally expanding.The business activity index rose to 55.9 in April from 53.9 the month before, while the gauge for new orders decreased to 53.5 from 60.6. The employment measure increased to 48 from 45.2, but remained in contraction territory for a second consecutive month, the ISM survey showed."The services sector continues to expand, but the sharp cooling in new orders alongside still-subdued employment momentum suggests growth may be becoming less durable," TD Economics Senior Economist Vikram Rai said in a note.The price index was unchanged at 70.7, staying at its highest level since October 2022, according to the ISM survey."With prices holding at their highest level since late 2022, today's report reinforces concerns that services sector inflation remains sticky," Rai said. "Combined with resilient activity levels, this supports the case for the (Federal Reserve) to remain patient, particularly as energy, freight, and labor costs continue to feed through to prices."Last week, the Fed kept its benchmark lending rate steady for a third straight meeting, saying the Middle East conflict is fueling uncertainty around the US economic outlook.Separately, S&P Global said Tuesday its services PMI gauge rose to 51 in April from 49.8 the month prior, though growth was "well below" the series average.New business intakes fell for the first time in two years, as the Middle East war and inflation weighed on demand. Employment increased "slightly," while confidence in the outlook improved, according to the data provider."A further increase in input cost inflation reflected not just higher fuel prices but a widening spread of goods and services rising in price, as well as higher wages, which will feed through to consumer price inflation in the coming months," S&P Global Market Intelligence Chief Business Economist Chris Williamson said. "The scale of the price rises will put pressure on the Fed to prevent higher inflation becoming entrenched."On Friday, ISM and S&P surveys showed that the US manufacturing sector saw continued growth in April, though inflationary pressures intensified amid disruptions caused by the Middle East conflict.Price: $423.13, Change: $-1.62, Percent Change: -0.38%

April Manufacturing Activity Grows as Price Pressures Intensify Amid War Disruptions, ISM, S&P Surveys Show

The US manufacturing sector saw continued growth in April, though inflationary pressures intensified amid disruptions caused by the Middle East conflict, two surveys showed Friday.The Institute for Supply Management's purchasing managers' index remained unchanged sequentially at 52.7 last month. The consensus was for a 53.2 reading in a survey compiled by Bloomberg. A reading above 50 indicates the manufacturing sector is generally expanding."The April ISM report suggests the US manufacturing sector's recent rebound may be leveling off, underlining a still-fragile expansion," TD Economics Senior Economist Vikram Rai said in a note. "Stable headline PMI and a diminished production index highlight cooling momentum, even as new orders growth persists."The new orders index increased to 54.1 from 53.5 sequentially in April, while production dropped to 53.4 from 55.1. The employment measure retreated to 46.4 from 48.7, remaining in contraction for the 31st consecutive month. The prices gauge jumped to 84.6 from 78.3, marking its highest reading since April 2022 and rising about 26 percentage points in the past three months, the ISM survey showed."The prices-paid index's steep climb to multiyear highs -- alongside the conspicuous slowdown in supplier deliveries -- signals mounting supply-chain stress and inflationary pressures driven by surging energy prices and war-related disruptions," Rai said. "These resurgent price pressures are keeping the Federal Reserve on alert, supporting expectations that any additional monetary policy easing is unlikely in the near term."Earlier in the week, the Fed kept its benchmark lending rate steady for a third straight meeting, saying the Middle East conflict is fueling uncertainty around the US economic outlook.Separately, S&P Global (SPGI) said Friday its manufacturing PMI advanced to 54.5 last month from 52.3 in March, representing the "strongest" expansion in the manufacturing economy since May 2022. However, input and output prices increased at accelerated rates, with inflation in each component "the steepest" for 10 months, the data provider said."A key driving force behind the upturn is the need for companies to get ahead of further feared price rises and supply shortages, providing a short-term boost that could fade in the coming months as headwinds to the economy continue to build," S&P Global Market Intelligence Chief Business Economist Chris Williamson said."Growth of purchasing activity hit a rate not seen for four years, since the pandemic, amid increasingly widespread supply delays and price rises commonly linked to the war in the Middle East, which has exacerbated existing pressure on supply and inflation from tariffs," Williamson said.Energy prices have surged as the US-Israel war with Iran has curtailed shipments through the crucial Strait of Hormuz. The war, which started at the end of February, paused following a recent ceasefire between Washington and Tehran, but a framework for a permanent truce is yet to be reached.Price: $430.74, Change: $-0.50, Percent Change: -0.11%

S&P Delivered Strong Q1 Beat Amid Ratings Revenue Growth, Margin Expansion, Morgan Stanley Says

S&P Global (SPGI) reported solid Q1 results with revenue from its Ratings business well ahead of peer Moody's (MCO) and its margin above muted forecasts, Morgan Stanley said in a note emailed Wednesday.S&P's organic Ratings revenue increase was 11.5% ahead of Moody's, which saw an about 6% increase during the quarter, the note said.Morgan Stanley noted, however, that while issuance was strong throughout the quarter, an increase in geopolitical tensions may derail momentum if conditions deteriorate.Meanwhile, S&P's margins rose 93 basis points year on year, which was well above consensus estimates of about flat, and the company's 2026 margin guidance is now looking conservative, the note said.Additionally, S&P's Market Intelligence division "which is arguably the biggest focus for investors, cleared the bar with 6.3% organic growth," the note said.Morgan Stanley kept S&P's overweight rating and increased the company's price target to $557 from $556.Price: $429.55, Change: $-3.93, Percent Change: -0.91%

The 10- and 20-city composites increased 1.5% and 0.9%, respectively, both slowing down from January's growth rates."More than half of major US metropolitan markets posted year-over-year price declines in February, signaling that the housing slowdown has broadened well beyond its Sun Belt origins," said Nicholas Godec, head of fixed income tradables and commodities at S&P Dow Jones Indices. "With consumer inflation at 2.4%, US home values have lost ground in real terms for nine consecutive months."Among the 20 cities, Chicago saw the highest annual gain in prices in February, up 5%, followed by New York and Cleveland.

Research Alert: CFRA Reiterates Hold Opinion On Shares Of S&p Global Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We increase our 12-month target price by $35 to $500, on a forward P/E of 22.7x our 2027 earnings estimate, a premium to the peer average of 20.8x given greater earnings stability. We increase our 2026 EPS estimate by $0.19 to $19.70 and raise 2027's by $0.06 to $22.05. We view Q1 results as a modest net positive. On the upside, SPGI's core Ratings division accelerated its revenue growth, and the company benefited from AI-fueled infrastructure spending as investment-grade issuance increased due to hyperscaler investments in AI data centers. However, SPGI maintained unchanged 2026 revenue and EPS guidance despite the strong Q1 performance, which was disappointing. Additionally, AI disruption concerns continue to weigh on the stock's valuation multiple. On a positive note, the company's portfolio simplification is progressing as SPGI announced the sale of its geoscience and petroleum engineering software assets within the Energy division, while the Mobility divestiture remains on track for mid-2026.

Research Alert: Spgi: Q1 Earnings Beat On Surging Ratings Revenue

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:SPGI posted solid Q1 2026 results with operating EPS of $4.97 vs. $4.37 YoY, beating the consensus by $0.15 after last quarter's miss. Revenue of $4.17B rose 10% YoY and beat the consensus by 2%, marking the third consecutive quarter of accelerating growth. We view this favorably as the Iran conflict had minimal impact on results. This validates management's confidence with improving business sentiment and reduced tariff uncertainty. Ratings was the standout performer with revenue surging 13% to $1.302B, due to robust issuance across both transaction (+15% to $712M) and non-transaction (+11% to $590M) revenue. Market Intelligence showed continued stabilization with 8% growth to $1.296B, though we believe AI disruption remains a long-term concern. Operating leverage was evident with adjusted operating margin expanding 100 bps to 51.8%, while the company returned $1.0B through repurchases and expects to return 100%+ of adjusted FCF in 2026.
