By Jamie Satchithanantham

     LONDON (MNI) - Find below the results from a MNI survey outlining analysts

expectations for the Markit/IHS Manufacturing, Construction and Services

Purchasing Managers' Indices due out next week.

     The general picture is one of little change. All three of the PMIs are

expected to come in in-and-around the levels set in June, pointing towards

continued growth, particularly strong in the manufacturing and construction

sectors.

     The manufacturing PMI is expected to come in a touch higher at 54.5 while

the construction PMI is expected to recede a modest 0.3 points to 54.5.

     Finally, the services PMI, the most eagerly anticipated of the three, is

seen little changed in July at 53.5.
