Eurozone Economy Experiences Record Drop in Early 2021

The flash Composite PMI for Eurozone fell from 49.1 in December to 47.5 in January, a third successive monthly decline, according to the IHS Markit press release. January’s PMI signals slowdowns in business activity and the steepest deterioration since November on fresh lockdowns amidst the new coronavirus strain.

  • Flash Eurozone Manufacturing PMI was 54.7 in January, down from 55.2 in December, a 2-month low.

  • ECB expects Eurozone’s gross domestic product (GDP) to expand by 3.9% in 2021 and 2.1% in 2022, after contracting 7.3% last year, but growth will depend on the evolution of the pandemic.
