S&P Global US PMI (Flash & Final): Release Dates, Results & History
S&P Global US PMI (Flash & Final) last printed 56 on Fri, Aug 21, 2026 against a 54.5 prior. The next release is Thursday, September 3, 2026 at 9:45 AM ET. Captured live by Helious the moment it printed.
The flash PMI is the earliest look at the current month's activity: it covers the month you're actually in, weeks ahead of ISM. Desks trade the flash; the final revision is usually a non-event. The composite and its price subindices give a same-month growth-plus-inflation read nothing else provides that early.
