PMI for Eurozonen – læs hele meddelelsen her:
Commenting on the final Manufacturing PMI data, Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist at IHS Markit said: “The eurozone upturn is developing deeper roots as factories enjoy a spring growth spurt. Demand for goods is growing at the steepest rate for six years, encouraging manufacturers to step up production and take on extra staff at a rate not previously seen in the two-decade history of the PMI survey.
“The fact that the upturn is being accompanied by such strong jobs growth sends a signal that increasing numbers of companies are moving away from a focus on cost cutting towards investing in expansion, underscoring the elevated levels of business optimism seen across the region. The record hiring adds to the sense that the upturn is looking more and more robust as each month goes by.
“Germany is leading the upturn but is by no means the only engine of growth. Solid upturns are being recorded in other countries such as the Netherlands, Austria, Spain, Italy and Ireland. While France is lagging behind, it is nonetheless enjoying its best quarter for six years. “The marked easing of input cost inflation during May will meanwhile be welcome news to policymakers eager to see signs that the recent uplift in consumer price inflation will prove shortlived.”
