PMI for Eurozonen fra Markit – læs hele meddelelsen her
Markits kommentar til dagens data:
“Although signalling an easing in the pace of expansion in July, the PMI points to steady manufacturing growth. The problem is that growth is looking increasingly lop-sided, which will worry policymakers and add to calls for further stimulus from the ECB. “The surveys suggest that euro area factory output is expanding at a near-2% annual pace, which has encouraged firms to take on extra staff at the fastest rate for five years in recent months.
Deflationary pressures are also easing, with costs showing the first rise for a year and selling prices stabilising. “However, dig deeper beyond the headline numbers and more worrying pictures appear. Expansions in output and employment are clearly being driven to a large extent by surging growth in Germany, while growth has almost stalled in both Italy and Spain and contractions are being seen in France and Greece.”
