Australia’s services sector strengthened in July, with the S&P Global Services PMI rising to 53.0, up from 50.5 in June 2026. The latest reading, updated on 23 July 2026, points to a firmer expansion in activity after the index had been hovering just above the 50.0 threshold that separates growth from contraction.

The move from 50.5 to 53.0 suggests that momentum in Australia’s services economy has improved over the past month, indicating healthier business conditions than earlier in the year. With June’s reading barely signaling growth, July’s data marks a more decisive shift into expansionary territory for the country’s dominant services sector.

Market participants will now be watching upcoming releases to see whether July’s gain can be sustained, as the services PMI often serves as an early gauge of overall economic direction and domestic demand in Australia.
