UAE: Non-oil sector growth softens in Dubai

Dubai’s non-oil sector saw a decline in September as its PMI decreased from 53.3 in August to 51.5. Weaker customer demand and a fall in orders contributed to this drop in activity.

However, business confidence received a boost in October due to the start of Expo 2020 and the event is also expected to generate higher sales.
