Analysts were expecting an improvement for Spain and Italy, but at 60.3 (the strongest since 2006), Spain's was much stronger than even bullish economists foresaw.
Italy's result is solid too. At 53.1, it's the second-strongest in more than four years. Jobs are being created at the fastest pace since 2007, according to the survey.
Declines in the bloc's two biggest economy, Germany and France, were expected to drag the index down. We've already had the "flash" readings for those two countries, with both showing a minor deteriorating in growth during April.
- Spain: 60.3 (57.3 in March, 57.4 expected)
- Italy: 53.1 (51.6 previously, 52 expected)
- France: 51.4 (52.4 previously, 50.8 expected)
- Germany: Out at 8:55 a.m. (55.4 previously, 54.4 expected)
- Eurozone: Out at 9 a.m. (54.2 previously, 53.7 expected)
We'll update you here as the numbers are released.
