German September PMIs: Manufacturing 53.8, Services 52.9 Beat
AI take
The headline beat masks a rotation: manufacturing slipped below forecast while services jumped from contraction territory to a solid expansion, lifting the composite. That mix matters more than the aggregate for rate expectations, since services strength is the stickier inflation component the ECB watches. The open question is whether services momentum holds once the manufacturing drag persists.
