  • UK Services PMI edges higher to 53.3 in August, beats estimates.
  • Manufacturing PMI in the UK climbs to 52.5 in August.
  • GBP/USD extends gains above 1.3100 after upbeat UK business PMIs.

The seasonally adjusted S&P Global/CIPS UK Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) improved from 52.1 in July to 52.5 in August. Markets had expected a 52.1 print.

Meanwhile, the Preliminary UK Services Business Activity Index rose to 53.3 in August, compared to July’s 52.5 and the estimated 52.8 figure.

Commenting on the flash PMI data, Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist at S&P Global Market Intelligence said: “August is witnessing a welcome combination of stronger economic growth, improved job creation and lower inflation, according to provisional PMI survey data.”

“Both manufacturing and service sectors are reporting solid output growth and increased job gains as business confidence remains elevated by historical standard,” Chris added.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
