It is the day of the Purchasing Managers’ Index data update for Europe. The Eurozone, together with its biggest economies Germany, France, and Italy, will release their respective manufacturing PMIs on November 02. The bloc is expected to update a 58.5-point hit which is in line with its October 22 reading. The indicator continues to rest on the area of expansion despite the ongoing supply chain disruption that affects export-oriented economies. For the record, any result above 50 points signifies growth while anything below suggests otherwise. Meanwhile, in a more detailed look at its individual member states, Germany is forecasted to clinch 58.2 points in its October Manufacturing PMI, with Italy trails on the positive mood with a forecasted 59.7 points update. On the other hand, France seems to sit on the other side of the fence. The country is expected to report a result of 53.5 points which is the lowest among the European Union’s big three economies.

Czech Republic’s recovery shakes as seen in a recent stall in its Purchasing Managers’ Index result. The country’s Markit PMI came at 55.1 points in October which is a sharp drop from September’s 58.0 result. Likewise, the actual figure missed analysts’ expectations which gave an estimate of 57.0-point settlement for the month. In a view of the overall health of the Czech economy, its third-quarter gross domestic product also disappointed the market. On a month-on-month basis, Q3 GDP recorded a 1.4% growth while YoY measure came at 2.8%. Both of the results fell below forecasts which gave a 1.8% MoM consensus estimate and a 2.8% expected improvement compared to the same period in fiscal 2020. Analysts warned that the lukewarm economic sentiment might linger for longer as the domestic transmission of covid continues to grow. Over the weekend, the government reported more than 2,000 in new daily infections, sending the total active cases to nearly 60,000.

Experts noted that the reopening of international trade and smoother facility of travel will contribute to its recovery.
