欧元区10月制造业PMI终值降至52.7，投入价格加速上涨加重欧央行压力
Eurozone manufacturing PMI holds up in October but rising price pressures give the ECB another headache
The final value of the euro zone's manufacturing PMI in October was 52.7, lower than the initial value of 52.4 and September's 52.9. The output index fell from 53.6 to 52.8, a four-month low. Manufacturing in France and Italy returned to contraction, with domestic political uncertainty in France the main drag. Input prices rose at the fastest pace since May and inflationary pressures rose for the second consecutive month, posing a problem for the European Central Bank's December decision.
The final value of the Eurozone manufacturing PMI in October was revised down and output hit a four-month low. France and Italy returned to contraction, indicating that recovery momentum is weakening. At the same time, input prices rose at the fastest rate since May, and inflationary pressures increased for the second consecutive month. The ECB's December decision faces a dilemma between growth and inflation. For traders, the focus is not on the absolute value of PMI, but on how the divergence between the price component and the growth component affects the market's pricing of the ECB's policy path, which is then transmitted to the euro and gold.
欧元区10月制造业PMI终值回落至52.7，投入价格创5月以来最快涨速，为欧央行12月决议前的通胀判断提供参考。
