DATA: The Philadelphia Fed said on Thursday its regional index activity gauge fell to -12.3 in July from -3.3 the previous month.

Economists polled by The Wall Street Journal expected a reading of 1.6.

Any reading below zero indicates deteriorating manufacturing conditions. It was the second consecutive month of contraction.

The Philadelphia Fed Index is one of several regional manufacturing indicators that provide timely readings on manufacturing.

Last week, a similar Empire State survey from the New York Fed showed an improvement in manufacturing activity, with an index of business conditions rising 12.3 points to 11.1 in July.

The national ISM manufacturing index fell to 53% in June, the lowest since June 2020, and has been above the breakeven point of 50 for 25 consecutive months. July data will be released early next month.

Market reaction: The Dow, +0.15% SPX, +0.59% stocks are expected to open lower on Thursday after several days of strong gains.
