03:59 AM EDT, 08/03/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Italy's manufacturing growth eased in July as reduced demand led to the first decline in new orders in three months, S&P Global said Monday. The S&P Global Italy Manufacturing PMI fell to 51.3 from 52.2 in June, below the consensus estimate of 52.5. The latest reading represented a marginal increase in operating conditions, underpinned by sustained output expansion.
