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
Nilai akhir PMI pembuatan zon euro pada Oktober ialah 52.7, lebih rendah daripada nilai awal 52.4 dan 52.9 September. Indeks keluaran jatuh daripada 53.6 kepada 52.8, paras terendah dalam tempoh empat bulan. Pembuatan di Perancis dan Itali kembali menguncup, dengan ketidaktentuan politik domestik di Perancis menjadi hambatan utama. Harga input meningkat pada kadar terpantas sejak Mei dan tekanan inflasi meningkat untuk bulan kedua berturut-turut, menimbulkan masalah kepada keputusan Bank Pusat Eropah pada Disember.
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。
