Eurozone businesses showed stagnation in October 2024, with the HCOB Composite PMI Output Index at 50.0, indicating no overall growth as expansions in smaller economies were offset by contractions in Germany and France. Services showed modest gains, while manufacturing contracted. Weakening demand, a fifth consecutive monthly drop in new work, and the sharpest employment decline since late 2020 highlight fragile economic conditions. Meanwhile, inflation rates for input and output costs were among the weakest in over three years.

Nonetheless, market reaction is limited following the publication, as investors' attention is currently focused solely on the US presidential election.
