The flash PMI, based on the early returns of the survey and for which only details of France and Germany are available, came in at 54 - and so did the complete survey.

That's above the neutral 50 level, indicating growth.

Here's the breakdown:

  • Spain: 55.1 (58.5 expected, 59.6 previous)
  • Italy: At 8:45 a.m. UK time (54 expected, 54.6 previous)
  • France: At 8:50 a.m.(51.2 expected, 50.6 previous)
  • Germany: At 8:55 a.m.(54.3 expected, 54.9 previous)
  • Eurozone total: At 9 a.m. (54 expected, 54.4 previous)
