  • All four mfg PMIs are forecast to rise marginally in Aug and all of them are seen above the 50-mark.
  • Last month's survey noted that despite the uptick in almost every category due to further easing of restrictions, firms are still not operating at full capacity.
  • Moreover, the Employment component fell further with the degree of job shedding historically high.
  • On the other hand, the services PMIs of France, Germany and the EZ are expected to tick down slightly, while the UK's index is anticipated to edge higher.
  • Just like the manufacturing sector, last month's survey showed another decline in the backlog of work as well as of employment - a development which is unlikely to change in Aug.
  • The recent rise in cases across Europe poses downside risk to the recovery of the service sector.
