لماذا يهم
The US economy has faced mixed signals in 2026, with services driving growth amid global uncertainty.
US business activity expanded at its fastest pace in eight months during July, driven by strong domestic demand for services which offset cooling factory production and rising costs. Service providers saw their highest activity levels since November 2025, according to the latest survey data. Meanwhile, manufacturing gauges fell to their lowest point since March, with supply chain delays and price pressures intensifying, thereby impacting growth and demand. This mixed performance reflects the current state of the US economy, where services are propping up the economy amid global headwinds affecting manufacturing.
