Euro zone composite PMI lower than expected in May
The IHS Markit Eurozone PMI fell from 55.1 in April to 54.1 in May, according to the flash reading which is based on approximately 85% of usual replies.
Commenting on the flash PMI data, Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist at IHS Markit said: "The May PMI brought yet another set of disappointing survey results, though once again a note of caution is required when interpreting the findings. While prior months have seen various factors such as extreme weather, strikes, illness and the timing of Easter dampen growth, May saw reports of business being adversely affected by an unusually high number of public holidays. "Furthermore, despite the headline PMI dropping to an 18-month low, the survey remains at a level consistent with the eurozone economy growing at a reasonably solid rate of just over 0.4% in the second quarter".
