Notes
From the PMI survey's own 'PMI - S' sheet, row 1 ('PMI - Services (Business Activity Index)'); the headline composite for this sector is canonical as LK.IND.PMI.PURCHASING_MANAGERS_INDEX_SERVICES_BUSINESS_AC.M (the Data Library) - see supersede(), which compares the two and decides which stays canonical. Compared against LK.IND.PMI.PURCHASING_MANAGERS_INDEX_SERVICES_BUSINESS_AC.M (this survey workbook): 134/135 shared months agree within 0.5 index points; the library copy is fresher-or-equal, so it stays canonical.

    This series reads 71.7; the same figure from the other source reads 71.1. Compared with LK.IND.PMI.PURCHASING_MANAGERS_INDEX_SERVICES_BUSINESS_AC.M.

    Two agencies: 71.7 and 71.1, difference 0.6.

    LK.IND.PMI_DETAIL.SERVICES_BUSINESS_AC.M: PMI survey workbook vs the Data Library

    PMI survey workbook (71.7) vs the Data Library's copy (71.1) for Services Business Activity, 2024-12 only - a 0.6-point gap, just over the 0.5-point tolerance used for the supersede test; every other shared month agrees. A minor one-off between the two CBSL publications, not clustered with anything else.
