A private gauge of China’s services activity expanded in January, likely helped by a boost from public holidays.

The Caixin services purchasing managers’ index fell to 52.7 last month from 52.9 in December, Caixin and S&P Global said in a statement Monday. That falls short of economists’ consensus estimate of 53. A reading over 50 indicates expansion from the prior month.
