FORECAST:

THE SURVEY:
ISM compiles its diffusion index by surveying more than 370
purchasing executives in more than 62 different service
industries
once a month.
The responses reflect the change in the current month
compared to the previous month. The non-manufacturing ISM
report is seasonally adjusted except for the business activity,
new orders, imports, and employment. The ISM
non-manufacturing survey was launched in July 1997.
