Recent August ISM Manufacturing PMI data at 54.6, down from July’s 55.6 but still marking the eighth straight month of expansion, has anchored trader expectations for the September reading in the low-to-mid 50s. Softer new orders (53.7) and backlogs (51.8) signal moderating demand momentum after July’s surge, while elevated prices paid (71.1) reflect persistent cost pressures from tariffs, Middle East supply disruptions, and AI-driven commodity demand. Offsetting factors include robust production (58.3), growing employment, and customer inventories remaining “too low,” which historically supports future replenishment. With the September release due October 1, markets price in continued expansion near recent levels amid uncertainty over whether geopolitical and tariff headwinds will further cool orders or if low inventories and output strength can sustain the mid-50s range.

This is a market about the ISM Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for September 2026, as reported by the Institute for Supply Management (ISM). A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the manufacturing sector relative to the previous month; a reading below 50 indicates contraction.
This market will resolve to the bracket containing the ISM Manufacturing PMI for September 2026 according to the monthly ISM Manufacturing PMI Report On Business.
The resolution source for this market will be the ISM Manufacturing PMI Report On Business released for September 2026 (https://www.ismworld.org/supply-management-news-and-reports/reports/ism-report-on-business/), currently scheduled to be released on October 1, 2026, at 10:00 AM ET. Resolution of this market will take place upon release of the aforementioned data.
Note: although ISM describes the PMI reading using the term "percent" in its official release (e.g., "The Manufacturing PMI registered 52.7 percent"), the PMI is a diffusion index, not a true percentage. For the purposes of this market, the PMI reading will be treated as a plain numerical value, consistent with how the index is universally quoted in financial markets.
Note: The ISM Manufacturing PMI is reported to one decimal point. Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving this market.
If ISM does not release the relevant figures on the scheduled date, this market may remain open until the scheduled release time of the next ISM Manufacturing PMI report (https://www.ismworld.org/supply-management-news-and-reports/reports/rob-report-calendar/). If the information is not released by that time, this market will resolve according to the figures of the most recent previous month with available data.Recent August ISM Manufacturing PMI data at 54.6, down from July’s 55.6 but still marking the eighth straight month of expansion, has anchored trader expectations for the September reading in the low-to-mid 50s.
