US S&P Global Composite PMI rose to 56.6 in December's flash estimate from 54.9 in November, showing that the business activity in the US' private sector continued to expand at an accelerating pace.
S&P Global Services PMI improved to 58.5 from 56.1. On a negative note, the Manufacturing PMI declined to 48.3 from 49.7 in the same period.
Assessing the survey's findings, "business is booming in the US services economy, where output is growing at the sharpest rate since the reopening of the economy from COVID lockdowns in 2021," said Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist at S&P Global Market Intelligence.
"It’s a different picture in manufacturing, however, where output is falling sharply and at an increased rate, in part due to weak export demand," Williamson added.
The US Dollar Index edged higher with the immediate reaction to PMI figures and was last seen rising 0.2% on the day at 107.15.
