August 2024 Middle Market Monitor

Mirus is pleased to share our thoughts on recent market activity in our August 2024 Middle Market Monitor. Economic indicators continued to send mixed signals this month: July’s unemployment rate rose to 4.3% (its highest level since October 2021), while the CPI saw its smallest annual increase since March 2021, increasing 2.9% year-over-year. Middle-market M&A activity remained steady.
