2026.09.2313:45:00UTC+00U.S. Manufacturing Momentum Accelerates as S&P Global PMI Jumps to 57.0 in September

The U.S. manufacturing sector strengthened markedly in September 2026, with the S&P Global Manufacturing PMI rising to 57.0, up from 53.9 in August 2026. The latest reading, updated on 23 September 2026, signals a faster expansion in manufacturing activity and keeps the index comfortably above the 50.0 threshold that separates growth from contraction.

The jump from August’s level to 57.0 suggests a broad-based improvement in operating conditions across the sector, potentially reflecting firmer demand and increased production volumes. While detailed component data are not provided, the headline gain points to a more robust manufacturing backdrop as the third quarter progresses.

With September’s result, the U.S. manufacturing PMI extends its expansionary run, underscoring the sector’s resilience heading into the final months of 2026. Investors and policymakers are likely to watch upcoming releases closely to see whether this stronger momentum can be sustained.
