Index readings over 50 are indicators for expansion. USA Today notes the index reached an eight-year high of 58.6 in August.<\/p>\n<p>The Institute of Supply Management report said overall sales increased 4.6 points to 59.7, and that its hiring index also rose 3.5 points to 56.2. The nation&#8217;s service industries, including retail, construction, health care and financial service, employ 90 percent of workers according to the USA Today blog post.<\/p>\n<p>The USA Today report says the majority of industries (10 of 18) showed improvement, which contributed to the overall index regaining part of the big drop it posted in September. &#171;The results suggest the shutdown caused less economic damage than first believed, and may point to stronger employment growth,&#187; said Christopher Rupkey, an economist at Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ in New York.<\/p>\n<p>Other economists, including Lindsey Piegza, Chief Economist at investment firm Sterne Agee, saw weaknesses lurking in the data. &#171;While headline growth suggests business activity is gaining momentum, details including new orders \u2026 suggest a slowing in trend,&#187; she told USA Today.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re considering getting into franchising, call Sintel Systems for a free phone consultation to help weigh and understand your options.
