The Eurozone presents a tale of two economies—one that clings to signs of recovery while struggling with entrenched challenges. The PMI’s rise to 49.6 suggests a softening of contraction, but it remains below the critical 50 mark, signaling the region has yet to achieve true expansion. Spain and Ireland’s robust private sector activity highlight the resilience of smaller economies in the bloc, but these gains are overshadowed by sluggish performance in Germany, France, and Italy. Germany’s PMI revision to 48 indicates marginal improvement, yet it reflects underlying industrial malaise in Europe’s economic powerhouse.
